Both GPA and SAT scores are important. I don’t think one is more important than the another.
The admissions do look at your class rank, but that’s only for ELC or any scholarships you might be getting (like Regents).
But to answer OP’s question, I think you’ll have a good chance. Although your GPA is awfully low, I think your ECs and SAT scores can balance that out. You might also want to write a good essay for the personal statement.

This year Berkeley admitted 10.7% of the applicants within the 3.70-3.99 UC GPA range (1,250 out of 11,692). So there is still a chance that you can get in.
