Hi Ahmed,
Answering incoming Skype calls is a bit of a challenge especially if you use a passcode. As far as I know you can't answer from the lock screen. If I have quick access to my phone I can usually do it uickly enough, but I have a 5S and use Touch Id which allows me to unlock the phone pretty quickly. It's definitely a good idea to set Skype alerts to show on the lock screen because then I can double tap on it in the lock screen, then use my fingerprint to unlock and I'll be taken straight into the app where I can find the answer button.

When I try to answer the call, it is very difficult for me to find to go to the skype app and answer the call quickly. Now, What is the easiest and fastest way to answer a skype call? And are there any specific notification settings, or any other possible settings that I need to perform which can facilitate the process of answering skype calls? Thank you.

This has indeed changed a bit in this version of Skype. The easiest way to do this is to double tap on a contact, then once the contact is open double tap o the contact name again at the top of the screen which will show you the contacts profile. You can also get there by opening a contact, then double tap the "More" button at the bottom right and select "Profile" from the menu. At the bottom of the profile is another "More" button and in this menu you now have "Block" and "Remove". There is no longer a "Block and Remove" option as I assume that removing a contact will either block it automatically or maybe it asks if you want to also block the contact if you tap on Remove. Since I didn't have a contact to be removed I didn't try this. In the What's New they also mentioned that you can send voice messages, I have not yet found where you can do this. I thought it would be in the media menu where you can send a photo or video message, but those are still the only 2 options in that menu.
