I recently purchased an iPhone 5c may 29 I dropped the phone on its back no cracks in screen or anything just my screen popped out of its casing I went to best buy where I purchased the phone at and have geek squad they popped the screen in semi but it's still popped out they said it will cost 150$ for a service fee . Will apple pop it back in free of charge the phone work fine how can I get apple to fix it or replace it for free?

Apple is not obligated to fix or replace it for free. However, it seems that in some cases if you go in to the Apple store and tell them what happened they will help you out.
Go to Apple and give it a try.
Obviously its not as simple as popping in the screen, sounds like something else might have broken or has physical damage.
Worst thing that can happen is they will say no but dont hurt to try.

Could I go to best buy and tell them I didn't drop it the screen is not cracked still works like new
Honesty is the best policy. Just go tell them what happened and see where it goes. Worst thing they are going to do is charge a service fee. They have heard all the lies, so you are most likely not going to pull one over on Best Buy, Apple or anyone for that matter.
I would say it felt jiggly at one point, then all of a sudden loose and it appears it could pop out any moment.
Try whatever lie you want and hope for the best.
Next time get a good case to protect it or save up money for the repair fee.
