They are not related except both are in the Human Family- of the Holiday spirit- reluctantly and belatedly accepted by Scrooge. Tiny Tim is the son of Bob Cratchit, an employee of Scrooge, he is not related to the businessman.

Scrooge asks the spirit if Tiny Tim will live, and the spirit responds by saying, "I see a vacant seat in the poor chimney corner, and a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved." This implies that Tiny Tim will die unless the future changes.

He isn't a blood relation to Scrooge, but the son of Scrooge's secretary Bob Cratchitt. He is paraplegic and of poor health, only being able to walk with the aid of crutches.

During his visitation by the Spirit of Christmas to Come, Scrooge is shown that he has the power to save Tiny Tim's life by paying for his medical bills, but if he fails, the child will die. Scrooge sees a vision of Tim lying dead in his bed, with Bob Cratchitt in tears and Mrs. Cratchitt cursing Scrooge for refusing to help out.

After reforming, Scrooge does indeed help Tim to become well and strong again by doubling Cratchitt's salary and paying for the medical treatment the child needs.

What did Scrooge ask the spirit to show him?

First the mute Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come shows him how his colleagues react (callously) to the news of his death (although Scrooge misunderstands and thinks they are talking about Marley).

They have taken "a seal or two, a pencil-case, a pair of sleeve-buttons, and a brooch of no great value . . . Sheets and towels, a little wearing apparel, two old-fashioned silver teaspoons, a pair of sugar-tongs, and a few boots," his bed curtains and blanket, and even the sleep shirt he was wearing. Finally the Ghost shows him his own headstone in the churchyard.
