A "status call" is simply a scheduled court date at which time the judge will inquire as to the status of the lawsuit. The court will likely want to know if all the parties have appeared in the suit. In other words, has each party filed an appearance along with appropriate pleadings in the matter, The judge may inquire as to the status of discovery. Have depositions been scheduled? Have interrogatories been issued? Are there any unique evidentiary or discovery issues in the case? Keep in mind that just about any matter involving the mechanics of the suit may be discussed at a status conference. The court will probably enter an order regarding a discovery timeline (setting dates for the completion of certain discovery) and may even schedule a future trial date.
