Sometimes, you can keep male and female parakeets (which are really budgies) in the same cage and they won't breed. Having them in a smaller cage indoors may stop them breeding, but there's no guarantee. Sometimes if the female is determined, she'll lay eggs in a corner without even having a nesting box.

Not usually. Birds mate for life unless the mate dies or is otherwise permanently separated from its mate.

Yes, most birds are social animals and get along fine most of the time. Expect to have baby birds, though, if you mix males and females together.

What is better to have as a pet bird a parakeet or a lovebird?

Well, it depends on what size bird you want. Obviously, parakeets are larger and seem to be louder. Lovebirds have a softer, more high pitched voice. Lovebirds do a loud, even higher-pitched voice when they want to get attention. Lovebirds are affectionate, so you'd better get two to keep each other company. Parakeets are larger and are the birds you can train to talk.

Nope. They're similar, but budgerigars (often called parakeets in the US) and lovebirds are actually different birds. Budgies tend to be slightly bigger and often have stripes. Most lovebird species have a more pronounced beak than that of the budgies, as well. The coloration is different, as well. Do some image searches for lovebirds and budgies to see the difference.
