Can you play Blu-ray discs on regular DVD player?
BluRay discs carry high definition television and therefore store data in a high density format. A standard definition DVD player will not recognise a BluRay disc and will simply report an error if one is loaded. On the other hand, a BluRay player will not only play BluRay discs but will also handle standard DVDs. Most will also recognise and play CD format discs. Most Bluray players will also down convert the HD signal from a BluRay disc so that it can be viewed on a standard definition television. In this case, of course, the image quality will be the same as any other standard definition signal. To benefit from the high definition signal, an HD television is also required.
Will Blu-ray disc players play the Blu-ray disc on a regular tube TV?
Most Bluray players can play either DVDs or Bluray discs using a standard definition television. Almost all Bluray players have an analog composite, S-video or component output that can be used. Before purchasing, check that the player has an output that the television can accept. Note that the quality of the image will be standard definition and not HD. All Bluray players today limit their analog outputs to SD so even with an HD television, analog inputs will not deliver HD images.
Does a Blu-ray tv have a better picture than an lec tv?

Can you play a Blu-ray player on a regular tv?
Yes you can. Virtually all Bluray players have an analog output which is standard definition. This can be connected to the video input of any television and you will see a standard definition image from a Bluray disc. The quality won't be as good as is on the disc of course but at least the disc will play. It is normally possible to set up the HDMI connector to output a standard definition signal. This is probably not of much use as almost all televisions that have HDMI inputs will also accept high definition signals. It might also be worth pointing out that standard DVDs will also play on a Bluray player. Using the analog output from the player with a standard DVD playing will give the same quality of image as any standard DVD player.
