If damage is 3d6 + stat - DL and the PCs take damage when they roll under the opponent DL, but the monster don't have stats other than their HD, DL and morale, does that mean that is posible to take no damage at all?

For example if I roll under DL 20 (because is a 1HD monster) and the 3d6 damage result is 15, I would be taking 0 damage because 20 - 15 = 0?

It's possible to take 0 damage if you roll equal to your opponent's DL. Players always have to roll higher than the opponent's DL (adding the appropriate ability score), so if you roll under the opponent's DL, you take the damage (the difference of the roll + stat - DL). In the example you gave me, your character would receive 5 damage.

I think I get it, thank you. Now just to be sure, during combat the only ones who take turns are the players, right? Monsters don't actively move or attack the players since they (the players) don't have a DL, right?

Monsters move and attack but only players roll. In that case they would roll to defend themselves.
