Sounds like a bad thermostat. If the house is 70 and the thermostat is set at 60 the furnace should not come on. On most there is no way to adjust them. Replacement is probably the best option.

Check and see if you have a hot water leak. It sounds like your domestic coil is working overtime. If you have a faucet dripping alot on the hot side this will cause the same problem.
