I'm not sure if I have a correct understanding but if you've toggled off Cellular Data at Settings app > Cellular > Cellular Data––Use cellular data on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support––as I understand it, that doesn't prevent phone calls. It's strictly for data.

You could use the option–Do Not Disturb–to silence and/or filter phone calls:

Use Do Not Disturb with Focus on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
