The first three digits are the area code, which refers to a broad geographic region.

You can usually find this information by looking at your old phone bill or contacting your old service provider. Once you know who your old service provider is, you can contact them and ask if your old number is available. A more simple way is to use the Phone Number Availability Checker tool.
