Yep you can pay/send money without actually having any money on your Paypal account, it will be taken from your debit/credit card instead.
Doing nothing is very hard to do... you never know when you're finished.

That edit slightly changes things. Sending money whether you have or don't have any funds on your paypal account doesn't incur any additional fees from you as far as i know but if the seller has a Paypal personal account instead of a business account, he/she can recieve a very limited number of payments in a year for free, can't remember how many it was.. 5? After that every time you recieve a payment, paypal takes a certain percentage from the transactions.
More detailed explanations you can find by reading Paypal's help section.

Send the payment as a gift or money owed in the reason for payment section.

No, there's a tab for the reason for the payment.
The second tab is personal, choose owed or gift for low or no fees.
I tested it w/ Minty way back and a no go it was....
