phone_nos.extend(4);
phone_nos(1) := '678-200-7879';

Could you post exact your creation scripts and error message as output in sqlplus ?
For me this code works.
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE xyz AS VARRAY(100) OF VARCHAR2(100);
  2  /
Type created.
SQL> create or replace procedure Arry_test (p_array IN XYZ)
  2  IS
  3  BEGIN
  4          dbms_output.put_line(p_array(1));
  5  END;
  6  /
Procedure created.
SQL> declare
  2  phone_nos XYZ :=XYZ('');
  3  BEGIN
  4          phone_nos.EXTEND(4);
  5          phone_nos(1) := '678-200-7879';
  6          phone_nos(2) := '678-201-7879';
  7          phone_nos(3) := '678-203-7879';
  8          phone_nos(4) := '678-204-7879';
  9          phone_nos(5) := '678-205-7879';
10          Arry_test (phone_nos);
11  end;
12  /
678-200-7879
