In the context of physics, momentum is a conserved quantity. This means that while momentum can be transferred between objects in a system, the total momentum of the system remains constant unless acted upon by an external force.
Momentum that can be transferred but not lost is called conserved momentum. This means that the total momentum of a system remains constant before and after a collision or interaction.
The balls likely lost momentum due to external forces like friction or air resistance. This lost momentum would have been transferred as heat energy to the surroundings, causing the balls to slow down.
The momentum of the person is transferred to the ground upon landing. Initially, the person has momentum due to their motion in the air, and upon landing, this momentum is imparted to the ground as the person comes to a stop.
The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of a closed system remains constant if no external forces act on it. This means that momentum cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred between objects within a system.
The law of conservation states that the total momentum does not change when it is transferred.

Momentum (as energy) isn't lost, it is transferred. Momentum is lost to friction when the ball is rolling, but in the described situation, the momentum is basically all transferred to the box upon impact. The box may tip over if light enough, or the box may break, or if heavy enough and built well enough, the box may absorb the impact and be left seemingly untouched. If the ball continues to roll after impact (if it bounces over/around/off of the box, then only partial momentum has been transferred to the box.
The law of conservation states that the total momentum does not change when it is transferred.
That is called an elastic collision, where momentum is transferred between objects but the total momentum remains constant. This means that the kinetic energy is conserved during the collision.
Momentum of an object is its own property but it can be transferred by that object to any other object during their collision ( elastic or inelastic ) so as to conserve the total momentum of the system as demonstrated by the law of conservation of momentum. One of the examples of the transferring of momentum is the transfer of momentum and incident energy from photons of x rays to the loosely bound electrons in graphite target in Compton effect.

Impulse is integral of linear momentum with respect to time, and in limits when that momentum was transferred.
After the hammer hits the nail, its momentum is transferred to the nail causing it to move. Momentum is conserved in the system, meaning that the total momentum of the hammer and nail before and after the collision remains the same.
