I did something very similar and wrote about it [1]. I would review this and if you have any specific questions about the code or have any specific questions after writing your code, please let me know.

I think your issue is that you are not setting the AccountId on the opportunity properly.
  
global class scheduleOpportunity implements schedulable {
    global void execute(SchedulableContext scx) {
        List<Opportunity> newOpp= new list<Opportunity>();

        // Probably want to make this a little more selective
        //   or you could hit govenor limits
        for (List<Account> accountList: [
            select AccountNumber,
                Billing_Date__c,
                Name,
                Phone
            from account
        ]) {
            for (Account account: accountList) {
                newOpp.add(new Opportunity(
                    Name = account.Name + ' Invoice',
                    AccountId = account.Id,
                    StageName = 'Pending',
                    CloseDate = account.Billing_Date__c
                ));
            }
        }  

        if (!newOpp.isEmpty()) {
            insert newopp;
        }
    }
}

This version is a little bit more bulk ready and should generate your opportunities correctly.
