Short version: interrogative means question, declarative means statement. In the context of learning Latin you might see these words in relation to sentences (an interrogative sentence is one that asks a question "Is that a pig?", a declarative sentence is one that asserts something, "John is a pig.").

Also you'll see interrogative used to describe question words (think who/what/where/etc.); for example, an "interrogative pronoun" - that is, the type of pronoun used to ask a question (so in "Who threw that rock?" = Quis illum lapidem iecit? , who/quis is the interrogative pronoun).
