If you removed the device from your Apple ID, it is unlocked for Activation Lock.


if you have forgotten the passcode, reset it: If you forgot your iPhone passcode - Apple Support


Depending on where this is headed: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
