No. You owe the bank money, and have nothing to withdraw. If you have overdraft protection, and you have made a withdrawal, the bank has loaned you money and will charge you additional fees or interest or both, plus the amount of the overdraft.

The biggest difference between an overdraft facility and a revolving loan is that a bank is required to make the revolving loan. An overdraft facility is only an agreement between the bank and the customer that fulfills requests that are no more than a certain amount. The revolving loan is also up to an agreed maximum amount, but only if the borrower agrees to the terms in their agreement.

Yes. Overdraft is like an advance where you take cash from your overdraft account (even though you do not have equivalent bank balance) and then you repay the money to the bank once you have raised enough funding to repay the same. The bank would charge you an overdraft fee + interest for the money you borrowed from them
The bank will charge an overdraft fee for as many times as the check has an attempted deposit. So the individual the check is written to is the person who is initiating multiple attempts to collect and the bank will charge a fee for every attempt made.
For an overdraft, the journal entry would be to debit the bank account (increasing the overdraft liability) and credit the corresponding expense account or accounts that led to the overdraft. This reflects the additional amount drawn from the bank account beyond the available balance.
