Is a loose deck railing dangerous?
Yes. A railing that moves when pushed is a fall hazard and should not be leaned on until it is re-fastened or replaced.

Quick answers
Can a few rotted deck boards be replaced without redoing the deck?
Usually. Individual boards are swapped when the joists under them are sound; soft or rotted joists are a larger repair that is scoped separately.
Why does a gate start to sag?
Most gates sag because the hinge post has leaned or the gate frame has racked out of square; the fix is to re-set the post or add a brace, not just to move the latch.
