Indeed.

ProxyPass goes most specific first.
Example of sorting:
ProxyPass /something ...
ProxyPass /

While Location should go more global first.
Example or sorting:
Location /
Location /something

As a general rule of thumb, when directive itself specifies url-path
don't use location, in this case ProxyPass first parameters is an
url-path, so using location to define proxypass adds unneeded
complexity.
