Velociraptor and Oviraptor were not extremely closely related. They both belonged to separate taxonomic families and they didn't share numerous clades above the family level. However, they do both belong to the clade Maniraptora.

Velociraptor was most closely related to other Velociraptorines, such as Itemirus, Adasaurus, and Tsaagan. Its closest living relatives are the birds. All birds are equally related to Velociraptor.

Velociraptor probably lived less than twenty years maximum, maybe as little as 15. Velociraptor was warm blooded, and it was a small carnivore. Small, warm blooded carnivores don't usually live very long today, and theropod dinosaurs, which were related to Velociraptor, such as Tyrannosaurus and Allosaurus, lived less than 30 years. If you are asking how long the species existed, their fossils date to between 75 and 71 million years ago, meaning that they existed for about 4 million years.
