Face value is the amount of life insurance that is stated on the front page (declarations) FACE of the policy. You might get paid less than that if you have policy loans. More if it's accidental death. Some policies pay dividends.

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.

Not usually, though I can't say that it is impossible. Life insurance is not regulated like car and home so one particular company could promise you that. Generally the cash value is if the insured cashes in the policy and the face amount is paid to the beneficiary when the insured dies. I was a life insurance agent for 15 years.
