It takes energy for water to evaporate and remain in the air as a gas. When it is cold, there is less heat energy available and most of the water condenses as dew or frost. However, there is never zero humidity, even when it's very cold - as long as there is water in the environment (and there is water everywhere, even the desert), there will be some level of humidity.

Sure. Humidity is a measure of the amount of water vapour in the air. 0 humidity would mean there isn't any, ie the air is just air. In practice, this is pretty rare outside of controlled environments, because there is so much water on Earth. But it happens, for instance, in Antarctica, where the air is too damn cold to hold any water.
