"Reset your security questions
1. Go to https://iforgot.apple.com/ .
2. Enter your Apple ID, then select Continue.
3. Choose the option to reset your security questions, then select Continue.
4. Enter your Apple ID password, then select Continue.
5. Follow the onscreen steps to verify your identity. The information you’re asked to provide may vary based on your account details and other factors. If you don't get any options to verify your identity, you can't reset your security questions at this time.
