If by "bike slack" you mean the chain is slack, you should properly tension it. I find a single drive-side chain tensioner is very useful for setting and maintaining chain tension.

You need both; they do two different jobs. Lube is thin and is used to reduce friction in moving parts like chains and cables. Grease is thick and facilitates assembling and disassembling parts that are threaded or pressed together (like bottom brackets and headset cups), and it provides long-term lubrication and protection for bearings.

It more likely means your wheel is out of true, and the spokes need tensioning.
