Decreasing term life insurance does not usually have any cash value. Decreasing term life insurance is life insurance coverage in which the face amount of a term life insurance policy declines by a certain specified amount over a specific number of years. For example, the initial face amount of coverage of a $200,000 decreasing term life insurance policy decreases by $20,000 each year, until after 10 years the face value of the policy equals zero. The premium does not decrease over the term of the policy.
No, generally speaking, no term life insurance policies have cash value.
Term insurance may or may not have cash value at some point. It has no value when it expires. For example, If a person bought term insurance at 30 which would expire at 70, it could have some cash value when that person was between the ages of 40 and 60. Term life starts losing cash value when people start dying. It becomes worthless when it expires. If you want to use your term life insurance policy, you will need to die before it expires.

no there is no cash value in a term insurance policy
Term insurance does not gather cash value. Surrender value tangentially correlates with cash value. Therefore, term insurance does not have a surrender value. If payment of premium stops, once the grace period expires, so does coverage.

No. Term Life insurance does not have any cash value and expires at the end of the term, usually age 70.You can borrow against a permanent or whole life insurance policy however, but whatever amount is borrowed may reduce its cash value.
Cash value insurance can be "whole life insurance" or "universal life insurance". There are few differences on how the funds are invested and if dividends can be paid that would increase the cash value, but both types of permanent life insurance can accumulate cash value. There is also a type of term insurance that has a "return of premium" feature that will return all premiums back at the end of the term. This type of term life policy is not actually accumulating cash value because you only get back the premiums you paid.
