VM aren't allowed to touch the BT master socket as it is BT's property. So when VM do the install they should leave it well alone. The most they might do is offer to place a new VM master socket next to the BT one, so any wired extensions you have running from it can easily be moved from one to the other.

As for your actual phone number - so long as you choose NO, then they'll not try to port it.
