Generally speaking overdrafts are used in describing personal finance rather than corporate or company finances. In its simplest form an overdraft is created when a person writes a check for more then is in their checking account. Either the check will bounce, or if the account is set up to cover overdrafts then the check is honored. Overdraft accounts usually cost more to have.

Can you withdraw money from the ATM even if there is no money in your account?

Many accounts have an overdraft, meaning you can withdraw more than you have, but which means your balance goes into the negative though, ie, you're now borrowing money from the bank. If you have overdraft on your account, you can withdraw up to the amount of overdraft protection you have. If you do not have overdraft protection, you can withdraw only up to the actual amount you have in your account.
