A field is a concept used in physics to capture how things like electric charges can exert forces on each other when separated by large distances. It is the mediator on the interactions. So the field is proportional to the force (in genreal). Now a magentic field is the thing that carries force between two or more current distributions and/or magnets. The magnetic force is usually proportional to the field times a current passing through the field.

magnetic force and magnetic field are vectors that are per-
pendicular to one another. The field is the potential energy
required to bring a charged particle from infinity to a point
from the source. They are related by the right hand rule.
use the fingers of your right hand to point in the direction of velocity of the current. Curl them toward your wrist in the
direction of the magnetic field. your thumb will point in the
direction of the magnetic force.

off the top of my head i would venture a guess that the force is the amount of energy that is able to push its properties on another mass..
and the field is the boundaries that the force can affect
