Yes, it's called "Tanking".

hmmm... I think that person would be considered a loser. But if they lost the game for you then they either feel sorry for you because you don't know how to play or they must really want to see you happy.

You could call it "throwing the game." As someone else said, he took a "dive." I'm not sure of any words you could use as an actually name for someone who did something like that...maybe "diver". ;)

not really no, although it is a form of cheating (as your actions are effecting the outcome of the game that you now will control)

HE DID THAT BECAUSE HE LIKES YOU? THEN THE WORD IS LOVE.
