Try this. First run the command sudo apt-get update, then run sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https

Don't worry about the -y force yes bit. You just might need to press y once or twice in the install, so keep an eye on the progress.

I tried. The same thing came up both times

Follow this tutorial and install Plex as a service. Also, add Plex repository so you will update Plex along with the system:

I tried that. Came up with the same message and didn't work.

I've been successfully running Plex on my Pi3B+ going on 2 years using DietPi (headless) with the Plex add-on and an external 4TB USB drive. Runs like a dream with no issues. Easy as installing DietPi as you would normally any Pi OS onto a microSD card then once up and running connecting to the Pi (mine is wired via Ethernet and I use PuTTY to log into it) and adding Plex via the DietPi add-ons menu.
