If your're on a Bb and want to trans. to C go up a whole step.

Correct



If you're on a Bb and want to go trans. to A go up a half step.
If your're on an A and want to trans. to Bb go down a half step.

Incorrect... you have them flip-flopped. A is a half step lower than Bb, therefore if you are playing a piece for A clarinet on Bb, you transpose down a half step. And vice versa for Bb music on A.



If you're on or in C and want to trans. to A go up 1 1/2 steps.

Why on earth would you transpose that unless you absolutely didn't have enough time to change to Bb. :-)
