Yes, it can happen that both resistors are bad as you described.

So, if I understand right than the resistors are responsible to trigger the LOW speed?

The ECU determines if the fan should be operating at high or low speed. Then the fan relays are used to route fan power through the resistor for low speed or not through the resistor for high speed.

No. Both fan has independent resistor. You can find these fan/resistor on older Mini Cooper
