As long as you are connected to your phone via Bluetooth or wifi, it alerts you. I have forgotten my phone at home before and still get messages at work because it is connected to a trusted wifi. It's quite helpful.

as long as you’re within 300 feet of your phone you will still get calls and texts. you can ever answer the call and talk from your apple watch. the difference in cellular and gps is that the cellular one you can get calls and texts no matter how far away you’re phone is, but it cost extra for the cellular watch and you have to put it on your phone plan and pay monthly as well

I don’t have cellular on my watch. I receive alerts from words for friends, text messages, and phone calls appear on my watch as well. That has been my experience. Another cool thing is that you can hear Siri talk to you on this watch. (Apple watch series 3 with GPS)

Yes - it will still alert you as long as your phone is paired with it. The cellular one allows you to not have the phone nearby.
