'Lupa' is generally intransitive, meaning 'to forget' (e.g., 'Saya lupa' - I forgot). 'Melupakan' is a transitive verb meaning 'to forget something/someone' and usually takes a direct object (e.g., 'Dia melupakan janjinya' - He forgot his promise).
Yes, but 'melupakan' is more common and often implies actively trying to forget someone, or simply forgetting their existence/details about them. 'Lupa' can also be used, e.g., 'Saya lupa dia siapa' (I forgot who he/she is).
'Lupa' itself is quite casual. You can simply say 'Saya lupa.' or even just 'Lupa!' in a very informal context.
