You are right, not necessarily: in fact it reads the environment

/bin/sh is a link to /bin/bash

Well, this is what's happening here on Fedora 23 using the gnome 
terminal:

[~]$ bash -c frescobaldi
bash: frescobaldi: comando non trovato
[~]$ bash -c 'frescobaldi'
bash: frescobaldi: comando non trovato
[~]$ bash -l -c 'frescobaldi'
bash: frescobaldi: command not found
