There are two types of drag experienced by a sphere. The first is the obvious drag due to friction. This only accounts for a small part of the drag experienced by a ball. The majority of the drag comes from the separation of the flow behind the ball and is known as pressure drag due to separation. For laminar flow past a sphere, the flow separates very early. The surface roughness caused the flow to transition from laminar to turbulent. The turbulent flow has more energy than the laminar flow and thus, the flow stays attached longer.

Yes Friction between the wheels and the ramp and also friction between the body of the car and the air (unless the car and ramp are in a perfect vacuum) There will be additional friction in the bearings or ball race of the wheel / axle too
The two main reasons are (1) the collision is inelastic and (2) friction. Both these factors reduce the ball's energy.
It will not, unless it is acted upon another force. If it's rolling on something, then friction will stop it (the ball rubbing on the table slows it down).
Because the rough road has more friction, thus expending the balls energy quicker than smooth road with less friction.
It's speed will reduce to to friction by gravity.
