In a way it is, in a way it isn't. Zero, when simplified is not even a decimal. Technically zero can be 0.0000000000... forever, but that can be simplified, so it can be terminating, because 0.0000000 is equal to 0.0 and 0 and 0.0000000000000000000000. So no if it is a whole number and yes if it is a decimal. Remember, zero is a placeholder for emptiness or nothing.

No, the sum of a repeating decimal and a terminating decimal is never a terminating decimal.
Decimals can be "terminating" "recurring" or "other." A terminating decimal is one which is finite. Recurring and other decimals continue on forever. For instance 0.5 is a terminating decimal. 0.729 is a terminating decimal. 0.3333333... is not a terminating decimal. pi (3.1415926535....) is not a terminating decimal.
