This is correct. To "log in" means to enter identifying data (usually username and password) in order to access a multi-user system such as a computer network. "Log on" means exactly the same thing as "log in". Note, "log in" can also be used as a noun but is usually written as one word. For example: "Have you been given a login for giantjugs.com yet?".
This is right. "Sign in" can be used as a synonym for "log in" or "log on". "To sign in" means to enter a username and password as a means of authentication. For example: "I can't sign in to check my emails because I've forgotten my password. Blast!" Note that we can also say "sign on".
This is incorrect. "Subscribe" means to begin a subscription to a magazine, newspaper or website. For example, "I've subscribed to receive a monthly magazine called "Guns and Killing". I'm tired of being a pacifist".
This is incorrect. "Sign up" means to enlist in an organization or group, to register or to subscribe. For example: "I've signed up for the army, apparently it's a good way to get a free haircut".
This is incorrect. "Tune in" means to adjust a radio or television in order to receive a signal or a particular station. For example: "Tune in to BBC3 next week to find out if Brad will get married to a giraffe".
This is incorrect. "Log out" (or "log off") means to terminate or end a computer session using a multi-user system, or a connection to such a system. It has the opposite meaning to "log in". For example: "Do you mind if I log you out of your session? I need to log in using my administrator account".
