How to "unsilence" specific phone numbers?

I'd like my iphone to be on silent by default - ie all calls / texts produce no sound, except for a few phone numbers (family members).


Is that possible?

iPhone X, iOS 13

Before you turn on Silence Unknown Callers, make sure you have important contacts saved or you could miss a phone call that you don’t want to miss. The call will still go to voicemail and appear in your recent calls list, but you won’t get a notification when you get the call.
