When Bash is started as an interactive login shell:

* It first reads and executes the /etc/profile (if it exists and is readable)
* It looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile in that order, and reads and executes the first one it finds (that exists and is readable)

When started as an interactive non-login shell:

* It reads and executes ~/.bashrc (if it exists and is readable)
