The meaning is more order.
You can decrease the entropy of a static body by reducing the temperature.
no.
Entropy increases. In a reaction comprised of sub-reactions, some sub-reactions may show a decrease in entropy but the entire reaction will show an increase of entropy. As an example, the formation of sugar molecules by living organisms is a process that shows decrease in entropy at the expense of the loss of entropy by the sun.

false
Only by increasing the entropy of another system.

You cannot reduce entropy because entropy increases (Second Law of Thermodynamics), if you could, we could have perpetual motion. When work is achieved energy is lost to heat. The only way to decrease the entropy of a system is to increase the entropy of another system.
