Yes, in general a region 1 player will probably play region-free discs. (Some region 1 discs are released so that they will not play on a region-free player, but that's not the same.)

HOWEVER, I would tread lightly on the statement that "import titles are usually region-free." Import titles that are, shall we say, informally produced, are usually region free. Official, authorized releases, are usually region-coded.
