We'd like to put instructions there.

No, you can't change what gets displayed in the Purple/Green message bar. Note that it's not even present in Acrobat/Reader DC.

Is there a good work-around for providing instructions? Is there alt text that appears somewhere that we could edit?

You can add a form field and apply a tooltip to it.

The tooltip text will appear when the user hovers over the field with the mouse .
