In baseball is it a dropped third strike if the pitcher throws a pitch in the dirt with the count 2-2 and the batter swings and misses and the catcher catches the ball off the dirt on one bounce?
It has to be caught it-the-air first. "Dropped Third Strike" is a misleading term. It should be called the "Uncaught Third Strike". So, if the ball touches the dirt before reaching the catcher, it is indeed a dropped third strike.

Yes, because the batter would have been moving towards first. It would not count against the pitcher's ERA, though, because it was not an earned run.

I think you're asking, "if the pitcher throws a ball that is waaaay out of the strike zone, but the batter swings at it anyway, does it count as a strike?" The answer is YES - if it were a foul ball it would count as a strike, so why should it be any different if it is put into play?
What is it called when a batter reaches 1st base on a dropped 3rd strike?
This is recorded as a strike out in the score book, and the pitcher is credited with a K. However, it does not count as an out should the runner advance successfully to first base, and the play is entered as a passed ball or a wild pitch.
Is it a plate appearance if the batter gets thrown out but a runner scores from third base?
It depends on what the count on the batter is when he is thrown out. If there are 2 strikes on the batter and his substitute gets struck out, the at-bat is contributed to the first batter. Otherwise, all stats will be awarded to the substitute batter.
