For future reference, next time please downsize your attached images by 50% (at least), and change the DPI to 72, both with the Preview.app. Not everyone has the luxury of a HiDPI display 
Go to VirtualBox Preferences » Display » Scale Factor, set that to 200%.

Re: Display of linux install on MAC OS is too small
For me , I tried scaling to 200% , but its just zooming,
So instead I logged in to the guest OS and changed resolution to maximum.
Which fixed for me - My guest OS is Ubuntu 18.4.
Might help...
