The situation is a bit complex. Consider three mobile devices, X , Y and Z.. Im using X and i lost my SIM card ( lost my current number ). My current Whatsapp account is still working on X. Now, will i be able to transfer that current account on device Y? And, if in case i plan to change numbers, how will i be able to change numbers from X to Y and from Y to Z.. ( X -> Y -> Z ) ?

Hi Punk7, welcome to AndroidPIT! 
As for your first question: you need to be able to reach the old number (X) to activate the old account on a new phone. However, if you still have access to the old account on the old phone you can simply switch the number in the settings of WhatsApp and transfer the account to a new number. After that simply use your new number on the new phone to register with WhatsApp and use the backup from your old phone.
Liebe Grüße, Bastian
