The size of your next backup likely exceeds the size of space available.

Settings > Apple ID > iCloud > Manage Storage > Backups > Device Name

You'll see the last backup, backup size and after a few minutes, the size of the next backup.

Well, backing up is always a good idea. You could back up to a computer instead of the cloud. Or, you can increase your cloud storage by upgrading iCloud+.
