Accounts with a balance lower than the minimal amount, 100 milliUnits (miliDOTs for Polkadot) as of writing are considered as nonexistent for the network. If an account's balance ever drops below this amount, it is removed from the network. In this application, it will still be visible, but with a balance of 0.

For a fund transfer to a **new account** (read an account with a balance of 0), if the amount transferred is less than the minimum allowed balance, then the transfer will "succeed" but the destination account will not be created (read its balance will remain 0); this essentially burns the transfer balance from the sender, because the receiver's balance never exceed the minimum allowed balance.

Accounts with a balance lower than the minimal amount (existential deposit) will be reaped

(All remaining funds lost, and the account's state removed from the network). Learn more on the polkadot wiki.

balance ever drops below this amount, it is removed from the network's state. In this web application,

that account will still be visible, but with a balance of 0.

If the receiver already exists (read it has a balance greater than 0), it is perfectly possible to transfer very low amounts.
