What if you want to restore data from an old phone with a different number?
I am getting a new line with a new number but I want to bring over my data, apps, contacts etc from my old phone and number..

Expanding on my reply, there are things (not data) that is tied to your phone number. You need to log out of iMessage and FaceTime, which have your phone number, and also any messaging services that use that number like WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, Google Duo, etc.
Also, if you have 2 factor authentication enabled you need to add the new number as a trusted number while the old number is still active.
The data on your phone is not tied to your phone number. Here is a support article on transferring data—>Transfer data from your previous iOS device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Thank you!
