I'm a chess beginner and I currently keep on losing. What happens if I lose all my points?

The further down your rating goes, the lower your expected chance of winning. The more it drops the less points you lose for any particular loss.

I think there is a floor of 100.

Thanks, that's literally gonna be me. XD 

Do you have any tips for beginners?

 You've only played 3 games so far!  If you want to learn there are plenty of video resources on the web (I'm not sure off-hand what is available here on chess.com for non-premium members) or if you just want to have some fun just keep playing games and try to learn from your mistakes as you go for now.

True, thanks, I'll keep playing even if I get to 100 points.
