This will deny caching for anything with the string "asp" preceded by a character. "wasp", "clasp", "3asp" and "#asp" are all examples of strings that will match. Regular expressions have a number of special characters (such as ".", "$" and "^"), which don't explicitly match the ASCII characters they represent, unless escaped (usually with another special character, "\").
acl ASP urlpath_regex \.asp
This is probably what you were going for with the first line, but with your current set up, it is redundant.
acl ASP urlpath_regex asp$
This is likely redundant. It will match "asp" at the end of the URL path. Unless that is the full extent of the url_path (e.g. http://www.example.com/asp), the first regular expression would match.
acl ASP urlpath_regex \.asp\?.+
This is, again, redundant. Any string this would match would also be matched by the first and second regular expressions.
no_cache deny mydomain ASP
If you use the mydomain acl defined above, and the ASP acl defined by Luis Daniel Lucio Quiroz (http://www.squid-cache.org/mail-archive/squid-users/200902/0351.html) you would be set to not cache ASP pages from your domain on your Squid server. Again, this will not prevent anyone else's server (or browser) from caching the pages.
