If I eat 1500 cals a day and burn then all off by biking. and that would leave me with 0 cals for the day, can I lose weight like this and not gain?

Hmm, I guess so, but I would think you'd have to burn more calories than you eat, rather than the exact amount you ate, you know? But I don't know.

you don't understand, my body burns 1000 days a day, and if I eat 1200 cals and then burn off everything i eat that would really leave me with 1000- and that means I would lose about 3 and a half lbs a week?

You need a certain about of calories a day just to keep your body running.  It depends on if your a guy or a girl.  Activity and exercise uses up more calories, so if you don't eat enough to fill those requirements, your body will use fat as fuel, so you loose weight.

the average is 2000 cals a day so mostly anything less than that the body burns off it self

you don't need to burn off all those calories in exercise. Your body is burning calories all day, like if you sit around doing nothing all day, your body probably burns around 1800 cals or more (depends on the person). So you only need a little exercise if you decrease your calories to 1500.

Well the body needs 2000 calories a day and anything over that turns into fat. You will definitely lose weight.

You can't predit that you'll lose EXACTLY 1500kcals from biking. Doesn't work like that. Someone gains or loses weight over a week, not one day.

i think it's safe to say if you burn all the calories you eat that you will lose weight. because it's basically as if you're eating nothing.
but it would make more sense to watch the fat content instead of calories.

you burn off calories just from being alive, so this would make you lose weight dangerously quickly.

you shouldnt lose more than 2lbs a week, and unless you weigh either 50lbs or are like 3ft tall, you burn more than 1000 a day at rest.

you probably burn at least 1300 a day at rest, and if you bike a lot then obv you burn extra.

you shouldnt try to lose more than 1000kcals a day, and that burns 2lbs a week

dont wonder why im not smiling, wonder why you are.
