Spotify will let you finish the remaining time left on your premium subscription until your next payment would be due. After that, your account will remain active but switched to a free account.

You sure can! Spotify will save all of your playlists and settings from your premium account for three months. So, if you feel the need to go back, you can just sign back up for a premium account using your same account information.
