Speaking from my experience looking for internships during school and for jobs after graduating, the questions you ask your interviewer are really important. Sure, people tell you that it's important because you want to look interested or like you've given the company thought, but more than that, as a person who's new to the workforce, it's important for you to learn about what's out there and what to expect. Answers to questions about work/life balance like, "What time do people usually come in and leave?", "Do coworkers hang out outside of work?", etc. differ greatly between companies. For internships, knowing the scope of your internship and the level of responsibility is a must. Questions about workflow are also crucial. Where do new ideas for products come from? If I have an idea what's the process for getting it implemented? And if you can't think of anything else, just ask what they think you should know about the company. Maybe you don't know what you don't know! You shouldn't feel like you're walking a fine line between looking disinterested for not asking questions and looking entitled for asking them. Even if you bombed the interview (and who hasn't), asking questions about the company will give you more information for comparison at the companies whose interviews you succeed at. And if you have multiple rounds of interviews, feel free to ask the same question to multiple people to get differing opinions. The company you go to is going to be part of your life for a long time, educate yourself about work environments just like you educate yourself about your field.
