iPhone can't be hacked, but if you suspect your Apple ID account has been hacked, change your Apple ID password and also implement two factor authentication on your account:

Change your Apple ID password: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT201355

Two-factor authentication for Apple ID: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204915

If your Apple ID was used on another device you would get a notification right away in your email.

Best thing is not to dwell on it. I doubt it was hacked, but to be safe, just change your Password and implement two factor authentication.
