I was wondering if it is possible to change the font of the window where the status of queries is displayed? I circled the area that the font is too small for me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If you want to only change the query result text, yes, you are right. Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors-> Text Results
In addition, if you also want to change both size of query and result. There is a simple way, you can also use the little box with a percentage in the bottom left corner as below screenshot. This controls the font size of the pane.
But this method do not help with the Grid Results pane. If some day you want to change the size of the grid results view in SSMS. Please go to Tools -> Options- > Fonts and Colors. Then under Show Settings for: select Grid Results. From there you can change the font to whatever is most comfortable for you. Please restart the SSMS to make this change effect.
