Can anyone help me to understand whether hackers can actually do this?

I understand some of ports like 55696 can be used for malicious software and trojans?? Following are my Ports open. Can you tell me how to close Ports and do the below pose a threat?

Do you have the OS X firewall turned on?

I'd also get an app such as LittleSnitch

I don't know how hackers do their thing, but I'd use some software to minimize the risk
