I read through a Google search that if you have a scratch on the front screen for example, it can potentially be more at risk of cracking there from a drop, where it might not have cracked if it had had no scratches.

Yup, think about how some glass and tile cutters work, they basically put a deep scratch across the surface and that creates a weak point and allows it to break almost perfectly along that line.
