No, you wont go to jail. But you also will not be able to get good loans in the future. This could severely effect your credit score. If you don't want to settle it, let someone else do it for you.

debt is normally a civil matter, not a criminal one. You only go to jail for criminal matters.
They can sue you and possibly get an order to deduct money from your pay , or tax returns , or even sale of property.

Not very likely. Bear in mind you are at the mercy of the judge.
Now … if you end up in court and do NOT mind your manners, the judge could put you in jail for contempt of court. The same is possible if you fail to do as the court orders. Failure to appear could result in a bench warrant for your arrest.
Such things are very rare as far as I know as long as you are only involved in a credit collection.
There are other potential problems if you fail to tend to this matter. You will sleep better if you do something about the matter when and if you can.
Usual disclaimers apply:
I am NOT a lawyer anywhere.
Your results may vary by court jurisdiction and judge since judges are human beings.
Your results may vary by the agressiveness of the creditor and the attorney representing the creditor.
