The situation you are describing assumes you have multiple connections or
paths to the other router and is directing you to configure BGP peering
using a loopback interface. If a loopback interface is being used, then the
ebgp-multihop would also be required.
If the frame relay goes down, then BGP would take your other path and remain
connected.
Otherwise, if you used your frame relay interface to peer and it went down,
then your BGP session would also go down.

Hello All,
What is the rational for using the command ebgp-multihop for a
situation where u want the bgp connect even if the frame relay
connection between two routers fails.?
