Yes, they are cold blooded. A frog is an amphibian and like most other amphibians is an ectotherm, meaning it depends on outside sources of heat to keep a near constant body temperature, this is what used to be called 'cold blooded'.

Yes, crocodiles are considered to be cold blooded animals. This is due to the the idea that their body temperature is dependent. All reptiles are cold blooded (crocodiles are reptiles).

Frogs are considered cold blooded animals, because they are poikilotherms. This means that their body temperature fluctuates with their environment, so they will have a cold body temperature is cold area, and a warm one in warm areas.
