[Not the exact quote.] He might not have remembered if he was there by the forest or not, and that is why he may not have answered either.
Yes, but he was called Gandalf in a "past life". So it is entirely probable that he wouldn't remember it. However, he would've had to be walking by Fangorn in "this" life. So he would have remembered it. He's old, but he isn't senile.
