If you are fired, you are parting ways with your employer for good. Being fired often implies that you have done something wrong or have not performed as required. If you are laid off, you might, in theory, be called back to work by your employer at some future time if business picks up. Being laid off can imply that you were let go through no fault of your own, but only because business conditions were bad for your employer.

For almost every purpose, no. Both the laid off and the fired are unpaid. But the fired earned it through conduct, attendance, or performance. The laid off were just unlucky - the employer had more workers than currently needed. No fault involved. Opportunity for reinstatement.
