Depends on what heater you use. An oil filled heater is very safe and that is what I use in the basement. Been in the mountains of northern WV in below zero temps and never had a problem. As stated, when it gets that cold, you do need to run the furnace from time to time also.
If you will be camping in weather like this, it might be worth getting wireless temp sensors and placing some in the basement and underbelly.
I bought these from Amazon for around $30.

These aren't available anymore, but there are newer models that are similar.
