It can be either.

If the ball is hit into the air and is in foul territory at any time, it counts as a foul ball if it goes into the stands.

If the ball is in the air and is in fair territory when it goes into the stands, it's a home run.

If the ball is in fair territory and hits the ground, then bounces into the stands in fair territory, it's a ground rule double.

If the ball bounces in fair territory but then bounces into the stands in foul territory past the infield, it's also a ground rule double.

If the ball bounces in fair territory, but then bounces into the stands before it passes 1st or 3rd base, it's a foul ball.

If it misses the pole outside of the playing field it is a foul ball (out of play) This is why it is called a 'Foul Pole" It could have been called a Fair Pole as it is in fair territory, but the powers that be decided on "Foul Pole" and "Foul Line"

It's still foul cause the ball was hit in foul territory. Whether a ball is fair or foul is based on the position of the ball when it is touched. Since the ball was touched when the ball was in foul territory, it would be a foul ball.
