See the following from Add a password hint on Mac - Apple Support

A password hint can help you remember the password for your account on this Mac. The hint appears if you enter the wrong password three consecutive times, or if you click the question mark in the password field in the login window.


If you don't have a hint or the hint doesn't help, see the information in https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202860
