Q:As we know, Passphrase can be reset but can we Retrieve the Passphrase in SharePoint?

A: There is no such possibility to retrieve the old passphrase but using powershell you can reset the passphrase.

Q:Can we open .WSP file? If YES how?

A:Create new project in visual studio,"Import SharePoint 2010/2013 Solution Package" project type and choose your wsp to load all its files structure to solution explorer another way is WSP Repackage tool which will also help you to uncompress the files which is present inside the wsp and open the files.
