The Dew Point is the temperature at which the air is at 100% Relative Humidity. If the temperature fall below the Dew Point, then there is more moisture in the air than it can hold, and water condenses in the form of dew, mist, rain, etc.
Yes, when the air temperature falls below the dew point, water vapor in the air will begin to condense into liquid water droplets. This often results in the formation of dew, fog, or clouds depending on the conditions.
When the temperature falls to 12°C at night and the dew point is at 10°C, condensation will likely occur as the air cools below its dew point. This can result in the formation of dew or frost on surfaces due to the air reaching its saturation point.

The dew point is reached when the temperature falls to the point where air becomes saturated with water vapor and can no longer hold it, causing condensation to form. At this point, the air is said to be at 100% relative humidity.
If the temperature of the ground, grass, and other surfaces is warmer than the dew point of the air that comes in contact with the surfaces, dew will not form. Sometimes this happens when the air is really dry and the dew point is very low.

supercooled
Cooling air below the dew point will result in the water in that air coming out of solution to deposit itself on surfaces. We call that dew. Certainly as the temperature continues to fall, it may even cause rain (if it isn't too cold).

dew point
Water vapour falls below the dew point (and comes out of solution in air).
When water vapor reaches its dew point it then becomes saturated. Either the vapor falls as rain, or if it is a cool clear night it forms as dew on surfaces. if the surface is cold enough it can also form as frost.
Yes, it is possible for the dew point to be below freezing. Dew point is the temperature at which air becomes saturated with moisture and condensation forms. If the air is very dry, the dew point can be below freezing, meaning that the air is not saturated with enough moisture for condensation to occur at temperatures above freezing.
It stays at 100%.
If the dew point temperature is below zero, the air would need to be cooled to that temperature or below for dew to form. At that point, the water vapor in the air would condense directly into ice crystals, in a process called deposition.
When the dew point is below 0 degrees Celsius, it means the air is very dry and contains very little water vapor. This typically happens in colder temperatures and can lead to conditions such as frost or freezing fog forming.
