Does your computer have a LINE IN?
What type of computer and connections do you haveso someone can give you some info, we can't guess, you need to detail all your setup and gear.

I heard something about an mbox and using outs to record for best quality.
Is that true?
There are about 3 1/2 thousand audio interfaces to choose from, doesn't have to be an mbox. You have to look around and see what fits your budget.

Also, when I throw a sample in the zone feature via trim, and it creates the program it erases all the sounds it that program already. is there anyway I can use zone and set sample A chops 1-16 on pad bank A and sample B chops 1-16 on pad bank B at the same time?
you didn't even specify what mpc you have

Is that true? Can you point me in the right direction of what "mbox" I need seeing as theres different kinds.
And the outs have no use to me unless it will raise quality but the outs just make it easier to mix right?
