Hello,
try this:
If you forgot your Apple ID password
Here's how to reset your Apple ID password and regain access to your account.
The fastest and easiest way to reset your password is with your iPhone or other trusted Apple device — one that you're already signed in to with your Apple ID, so that we know that it's yours.
You need a passcode (or password on Mac) set up on your device.
Reset your Apple ID password on your iPhone or other trusted Apple device
You can also follow this process on a trusted iPad or Apple Watch.
To reset your password on your trusted Mac, choose Apple menu > System Settings > your name. Then click Sign-In & Security, Change Password, and follow the onscreen instructions.
If you have a new Apple device
If you have a new Apple device or an Apple device that you aren't signed in to with your Apple ID, you can select "Forgot password or don't have an Apple ID?" wherever the option appears.
During device setup, you can find the "Forgot password or don't have an Apple ID?" option on the Apple ID sign-in screen.
After setup, you can find the "Forgot password or don't have an Apple ID?" option in Settings:
Reset your Apple ID password with the Apple Support app on a borrowed device
If you don't have an Apple device but have access to your trusted phone number, you can borrow an Apple device from a friend or family member, or use one at an Apple Store.
Any information that you enter will not be stored on the device.
Reset your Apple ID password on the web
Reset your password at iforgot.apple.com
When possible, the web process redirects you to a trusted device.
If you don't have a trusted device, you can still reset your password on the web — but the process might take a little longer. If you'll have access to one of your trusted devices soon, it might be faster and easier to reset your password then.
Hope i Helped :)

You are sign in here . . . with your Apple ID & Password.
Your Apple ID is the personal account you use with all Apple products and services. It includes the email address and password you use to sign in, as well as the contact, payment, and security details that you use with Apple.
You can’t merge multiple Apple ID accounts.
What happens when you use the same Apple ID & Password that you use to sign in here?
