You can sign in on this page https://account.live.com/proofs/manage/addition...

Then scroll down to "Identity verification apps"
Then click on Turn off all existing apps.
Uninstall the authenticator app on your old phone
Install it on your new phone
Go back to the page where you removed it and this time choose to set up the app
