Have you checked to see if you have Smart Lock enabled and that a trusted device/location is not present? Also check the time that your phone should lock itself after pressing the power button (you can select it so that it locks immediately).

There's no problem in that screen. If you swipe the screen it will bring you to the number code. It's not going to unlock. That's normal. My S7 has that text too and if I swipe it brings me to the number pad.

I have Samsung A5 (2017) and it had the same problem. S7 and A5 are different. Besides, I've already found the solution for it.

After you entered "Setting":
#1 go to "Lock screen and security"
#2 click on "Smart lock"
#3 first enter your security password and then click on "On-body detection"
#4 turn it off
I wasn't being suspicious. I was just talking to the person who asked for help and not to anybody else.
Anyways, here you have it. I hope it helps.

Anyway for future reference, if you have an answer to a question, post it so that not only the person who asked can see the answer, but anyone else having trouble can Google it and one of the links will be to this post. So more people will benefit.
