How to check exact phone number in Java with regex

Hello I am new with regex and i don't have a clue what I am doing. That is why i am seeking for assistance.

I have the following phone number +359878123456 and i need to check if the phone number matches the criteria.

Additionally i can allow the following numbers in the checking.

This is where I am at

import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;

public class ValidatePhoneNumber {
  public static void main(String[] argv) {

      String sPhoneNumber = "+35987";
      //String sPhoneNumber = "605-88899991";
      //String sPhoneNumber = "605-888999A";

      Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("^\\+([3][5][9]){[87],[88],[89]}");
      Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(sPhoneNumber);

      if (matcher.matches()) {
          System.out.println("Phone Number Valid");
      }
      else
      {
          System.out.println("Phone Number Not Valid");
      }
 }
}

EDITED>

I am checking the numbers are matching that criteria and only print that line. This is my code.

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

        // Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("((\\+|00)359|0)8[7-9][2-9]\\d{6}$"); //checks evaluation of phone number
         Pattern p = Pattern.compile("^((\\+|00)359|0)8[7-9][2-9]\\d{6}$");

         File inFile = new File ("phonebook.txt");

          Scanner sc = new Scanner (inFile);
          while (sc.hasNextLine())
          {
            String line = sc.nextLine();
            if(line.matches("^((\\+|00)359|0)8[7-9][2-9]\\d{6}$")) // here that code doesn't work
            {
            System.out.println (line);
            }
          }
          sc.close();
        }

The file phonebook.txt contains: Name and number

    Pattern p2 = Pattern.compile("^((\\+|00)359|0)(\\-|\\s)?8[7-9][2-9](\\-|\\s)?\\d{3}(\\s|\\-)?\\d{3}$");
    boolean b = p2.matcher("+359-878-123456").matches();

    if(b) System.out.println("True7");

    b = p2.matcher("359878123456").matches(); // without + or 00
    if(b) System.out.println("True8");
    else System.out.println("FALSE8");

    b = p2.matcher("123478123456").matches(); 
    if(b) System.out.println("True9");
    else System.out.println("FALSE9");

  }
}

Try this regex:

Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("^(((\\+|00)359)|0)8[7-9][2-9][0-9]{6}$");

I think you need to add 6 numbers between 0-9 some thing like this

    public static void main(String ...args){
      String phoneNumber="+359878123456";

      Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("^(\\+|0|00)3598[789][2-9][0-9]{6}");
      Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(phoneNumber);
      System.out.println(matcher.matches());
}
