If you are locked out of your Apple ID account you can go to https://iforgot.apple.com

This will provide you with the recovery steps you put in place for this situation.


Here are some support articles that should help:

If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions - Apple Support

If your Apple ID has been locked or disabled – Apple Support

If you are being told there isn't enough information to reset them, contact Apple ID Support.


If you don't know the answers, if the steps in the article below don’t work, contact Apple ID Support, although based on multiple posts I have read, they will not help you recover the answers to your security questions.


 Apple ID - If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions.      


From the article below. 


Without proof of your identity via security questions and other carefully selected criteria, Apple Support can't help you reset a password or perform any other actions on your account. These policies are audited and reviewed on a regular basis.

You won't be able to access your account. See


If your Apple ID is locked or disabled https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204106 "If you or someone else enters your password, security questions, or other account information incorrectly too many times, your Apple ID automatically locks to protect your security and you can't sign in to any Apple services.

 

If you use two-factor authentication, you need a trusted device or trusted phone number to reset your Apple ID password and unlock your account. If you have a recovery key, you can also use it to help you regain access to your account. …

 

If you use security questions with your Apple ID, or if you don't have access to a trusted device or phone number, go to iforgot.apple.com. Then you can unlock your account with your existing password or reset your password. After multiple unsuccessful attempts to unlock your account, your Apple ID will remain locked and you can try again the next day.” Eventually you will end up in account recovery if you can’t answer your security questions satisfactorily, etc., and may be told “we don’t have sufficient information to reset your security questions."


Apple support might be able to help you before you enter recovery if you have your receipt for the purchase of a pertinent device from an authorized Apple seller with its serial number on it. You will need a photo ID alsoSee the support

options below to reach Apple Support for help. Alternatively, if an Apple Store

is open in your area, then you can go there to deal with your problem. In this

case, you can make a genius-bar appointment (https://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/) if you want.
