If you prefer Command Line Interface , VI or VIM Editor is your best choice [ try command vi <filename> or vim <filename> from Command Line ]. But if you are not familair with it, I suggest you to go through the documentation first and be familiar with it, else you may corrupt the file easily. You may refer https://www.cs.colostate.edu/helpdocs/vi.html ato start with and it appears to be a nice document to me.
But there is other methods also. You can install a program with SCP support [ like WinSCP, FileZilla, etc ] and use it to connect to your servetr. Browse the file once the connection is established and double click on the file, it will open the file in your system in a text editor [ GUI - like notepad ] , you can modify the file and save it.

I use the VIM editor. It is easy to use. You will need vi command for the editor. If you are not familiar with the installation process then please contact the person who has knowledge of the installation process. You can contact your hosting provider too, if they will install it for you then it will best.
You will get various tutorials online but if you will stuck with the installation process then it will break your server. So it's recommended to get in touch with the technical person before updating or installing any software.
