Hello i do still have a question about the vnav speed/vnav path:

Lets say i am flying from waypoint A to waypoint B and waypoint B has a restriction 210/fl150B.

Due to circumstances i am well above (lets say FL300) my vnav path, and the aircraft is in vnav speed maintaining the fmc descent speed of eg. 260kt. So pitching the aircraft to maintain the speed.

Will my aircraft still be flying at my programmed speed of 260kt and ignoring the restriction of 210/FL150B overhead waypoint B, or will it be reducing speed to 210kt but being well above FL150? (Assuming i dont intervene).

Thank you.
