여보세요 means literally "look here' = 여기 보세요. It is used when answering the phone. In this situation it means simply "hello". It is just an idiomatic expression
여보 is used among older married couples to call each other. Young people tend to use 자기야 instead.

As 프란시스코 said, 여보 is 여기 + 보오. 여보세요 is the same, too.
세요 is like a honorific ending. e.g. 벌써 가? 벌써 가세요?, 어서 해. 어서 하세요. The latter is more polite.
