I work in HR - we call. We definitely call. But just tell the truth - they were only temp jobs, and you have much stronger references at such-n-such place. We prefer to call the most recent job anyway. Other calls... we also like to call those with directly-related experience.
Slightly off-topic note for application process: lots of places are starting to do criminal background checks and drug screens. Don't be an idiot - even if it was minor "I was a teenager and an idiot" type stuff... don't falsify your application by marking "no criminal background". It all shows up somewhere.
Good luck, and let me know if you have other questions!
