Hello Janicefromil,

It sounds like you are wanting to stop getting text messages on your Mac when people test your phone number. You can remove your phone number from iMessage, then when people send texts to your number they would go to your Android phone. Check out this link for support with removing your phone number from iMessage.

Add or remove your phone number in Messages or FaceTime

Cheers!
