Unfortunately you can't. If you're talking about the original Super Mario game once you die, it's game over! However if you want to stop playing, just push pause and turn off your tv. You can always come back and play it later. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, no.
Like most NES games, there is no way to save your progress in Super Mario Bros.
You are probably talking about the one you need to get Rosalina in MarioKart Wii, true? A Super Mario Galaxy save is a save file created by Super Mario Galaxy, which is an awesome 3D platformer by Nintendo.
A save file should be created when you start playing Super Mario Galaxy.

No, you cannot unlock Rosalina in Mario Kart Wii using a save file from Super Mario Galaxy 2. To unlock Rosalina in Mario Kart Wii, you need to have a save file from the original Super Mario Galaxy on your Wii. If that save file is present, you can unlock her by completing a specific set of criteria in the game.
