"Screen turned black with pink and purple lines? MacBook Pro: I can see some of my desktop background at the very top, but most of my screen is black with colored lines. I’ve had no issues and closed it and came back after 15 min to this screen. What would cause this? Fixable?"

About a Flickering Mac Screen:
I had this issue on my 2017 MBP, and had to send it in 11 times to get this fixed. The issue is the connector going from the screen into the LogicBoard. It just became loose.
Based on personal experience.
Get this Serviced:
Why risk a faulty device?
It's Time for a New Screen:
Get one from one of the following three locations. Getting it elsewhere, you might end up getting an non-genuine display.
A. Contact Apple Support:
If purchased from Apple, or covered under AppleCare, then get this serviced by Apple.
- Contact Us - Choose Locations
- Proceed from there as necessary
- Note: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. And that makes sense because with the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)
Or..
B. Contact an AASP:
Also, take this to an AASP (Apple Authorized Service provider), asking for assistance.
- Go Here: Find Locations - Apple Authorized Reseller
- Click: Service & Support
- Enter: your location information
- See: if there is an AASP nearby
- Contact: an AASP that shows up, and find out more about the services that they offer to fix the Mac
Or...
C. Contact A Retailer:
- Contact your local retailer, seeing if they replace these.
