That might refer to a lubricant.
A substance or material that reduces friction is called a lubricant. Lubricants are applied between surfaces in motion to decrease friction and wear, allowing for smoother movement and reduced heat generation.
If friction decreases, the ball will roll farther since there is less force resisting its motion. Friction between the ball and the surface slows it down, so reducing friction allows the ball to maintain its speed and travel a greater distance.
When you push something heavy, the resistance you feel decreases as the object starts moving because static friction transitions to kinetic friction. Static friction is the force that keeps an object at rest, while kinetic friction is the force that opposes motion once the object starts moving. As the object overcomes static friction and transitions to kinetic friction, the resistance you feel decreases.
The force that decreases motion due to interaction between two surfaces is friction. Friction is the resistance that occurs when one surface moves over another, causing a decrease in the speed or stopping of the motion.
Friction is a common factor that decreases efficiency by causing energy loss to the environment. When two surfaces rub against each other, heat is generated, resulting in wasted energy. Minimizing friction through lubrication or using smoother materials can help improve efficiency.

No; friction decreases gas mileage.
The particles in a substance slow down when the average kinetic energy of the particles decreases. As the average kinetic energy decreases, the internal energy decreases, and so the thermal energy decreases. As the thermal energy of the substance decreases, the temperature decreases.
