They are sitting on the sofa. (they are doing it right now)
They were sitting on the sofa.
(they were doing it at some point in the past, they may still be sitting on that sofa right now; it is impossible to determine the current situation base on this example)
They sat on the sofa. (they are not doing it any more!, they are for instance standing, but not sitting).
Is my understanding correct? I am especially interested in the last example?
