Only in the sense of "departing" where "leaving" is the present participle of to leave, e.g. Leaving guests must receive their car keys from the valet.

Otherwise, leaving is a verb form, or a noun (gerund).

No, it is a verb, as in 'to leave a napkin on the table"

It can also be a noun (e.g. military leave, maternity leave).

The past participle "left" can sometimes be an adjective.
