Some of it depends on the counter you use. Sometimes you can do either.
Straight punches you can block, slip, duck, lean back (that's all I can think of right now since I'm half asleep).
Let's see... Off of a block/pat- I've used either. My coach (a retired pro) preferred to block and and counter with same hand. At my skill level (lower, but experience in MMA) I get alot of use from pat, then counter with opposite hand, and of course use that as a set up for a combo. Works awsome for lower boxing skill people (a vast majority of people), and it's fast.
Off of a slip- always slip to the outside if possible, to get away from their other hand. What ever side you slip to, that's the hand you counter with.
Ducking OR leaning back- can use either hand. I like poppin' them with my right, since it's almost as fast as my jab and packs a good smack for setting up a combo.
Body punches- if you use your elbows to block, use the other arm to counter.
Duck and weave to avoid hooks- Whatever side he punches with, use opposite hand. You should be on the outside of his punch when you finish your weave and sets you up for a good body or head hook (the mechanics and pivoting is just perfect for that opportunity).
Same counter mechanics if you lean to the outside of an uppercut.
That's all I can think of. A good boxer could probably give better advice, but alot of people also have individual styles that work for their body type/ specific strengths.
