Open Manage Booking or contact the original booking channel and review the itemised refund before confirming. The final amount depends on fare rules, timing, taxes, add-ons and used sectors.

Often yes, subject to the fare's change fee and any fare difference. Compare the total change cost with the cancellation loss before deciding.
