My phone has pop ups everyday all day long saying my phone has viruses or my location is better my used in another state. And I just received a call from Poland saying my apple account has been hacked and to call some number to resolve it.

For the phone calls:
Apple does not make such calls.
All such calls are scams from criminals attempting to steal your personal and financial information. The callers will often use number spoofing to pretend they are calling from a legitimate business. The correct course of action is to ignore the calls or hang up on them, repeatedly if needed.

What about the call from a Poland number saying my Apple account has been hacked and not to use any cards or accounts until issue is resolved by calling a number back. That just at sounds suspicious to me.
Yes, it is suspicious. As above, it is a very common scam attempt.
