    No. Activated abilities are always written in the form "Cost: Effect". Landfall is a triggered ability (except on instants and sorceries, where it's a replacement effect).

    No, it isn't activated. At all. Ever.

    For Bloodghast's landfall ability, can I choose to leave him in the graveyard if I put a land into play. Like if I have a Crypt of Agadeem in play and I want to build it up to play a bigger card? Bloodghast's ability says that I "may" return him to play...

    Any time you see the word "may", it means that the option is up to the player.

    It also means if you forget about an ability or effect with "may", then your out of luck, there's no going back and doing the action.
