I don’t know my Apple ID password and I no longer have the trusted number. I got a new phone and can’t use any of my apps on it due to this issue. What can I do to get access?

I got a new iPhone. I do not know the password for my Apple ID and I do not have access to the trusted number listed on the account. I can’t use anything on the new phone it’s been a week.

iPhone 12

If you are not the owner and do not have the Apple ID and Password then there is no way that you can get into this iPhone unless the original owner shares the Apple ID and password with you. If you are lucky you can get into this iPhone if they (owner) accidentally remove the device from their Apple ID.
