Most likely because you left your lights on. Every vehicle plays some kind of chime or warning when you open your door to leave your vehicle when you have the keys out of the ignition. This is to prevent you from leaving your vehicle unattended with the lights on, so you don't kill your battery.

Why does the car chime when the door is opened and the keys are not in the ignition on a 2000 Mazda MVP?

The chime may ring on a 2000 Mazda MVP if a door is open and the keys are not in the ignition because the car has a secondary alarm system that is letting the driver know that a door is ajar. If the door is opened while someone is sitting in the passenger seat it might go off before the person exits the vehicle.

The remote won't work Will the alarm sound if you open the door with the key?

How have you locked the car? If you locked it with the key, then the alarm probably isn't armed anyway. If you did manage to lock it with the remote, then unlock with the key. Open the door, and imediately put the key in the ignition and turn the ignition to the run position. The car will recognise the transponder chip in the key, and switch the alarm off if it has started sounding.
