I created a database in SQL Server 2016, but I need to save it into a lower version and be able to open it in SQL Server 2014. Is it possible?

No, it is not possible. The reverse one is possible - to restore database backup from one edition to latter one.
You can also perform on place upgrade of your SQL Server 2014 to SQL Server 2016.

Yes it is possible, but it requires some administration. You will have to enable replication, and create a snapshot publication of the database, with your SQL 2014 server as your subscriber.
