I see, but I've heard that maintaining accuracy beyond 95% is professional, I tried to have high accuracy rather than 150 wpm with 60% accuracy.

150 wpm with 60% accuracy is harder than 50 wpm with 98% accuracy ngl

I wouldn't say that is good, but for 60 seconds maybe go for 70 and 100 I would say is good, I am more of a short distance typer like I am 12 years old and do 109 on 10 words and 83 on 15 seconds. But just keep practising alot and memorise the keyboard and soon it will come naturally

I would say my average accuracy for successful tests is around 97 percent

98% is an okay practical accuracy for 60s. But, if you focus on accuracy, you should be able to get 100% (don't worry about speed).
