Did you set up a Samsung Account? If so Samsung Find My Mobile can unlock it otherwise a hard reset is your only option which means your data will be lost

Welcome to Android Central! Which password is it asking for--your Google or Samsung account's? Or is it the backup password you created when you set up fingerprint unlock?
