The reverse might be more probable. Lions eat what is available. However, a tiger would probably not stand around and let the lion eat it. And, in most cases, the larger and more powerful tiger would kill the lion.

In the wild - no. They live on different continents, so they'd never meet. Tigers = Asia, Jaguars = South America.

But if they would meet a tiger quite probably would have a go at the jaguar. Tigers are stronger and have a streak of opportunistic feeding in them. Even if not for eating, the tiger might well see the jaguar as competition for food and something to get rid of.

Lions and tigers do not live in the same area so never meet in the wild. Lions will kill other large cats, such as the leopard and cheetah, that do share their habitat but are not known to eat them.

Assuming they are in a fight, they could plausibly eat the losing animal. Though lions and tigers live in different climates it's highly unlikely unless they escape a zoo.

No.

Except for adult male tigers that eat cubs so that the mother can mate again.

Yes because it is a bigger animal

Possibly, but in reality they wouldn't normally meet. Lions natural habitat is in Africa but Tigers live in India and the far east.

No, they generally do not inhabit the same areas. Also, big cats rarely eat other carnivores. They may kill them but find them distasteful to eat.
