    Read the theme license, WordPress.org themes don't require attribution so you can remove the link.

    You can only remove footer links if you are allowed to do so by the creator. Read the theme documentation as this will tell you, but if it's a free theme I would say that you're probably not allowed.

    Not if you want to face the legal consequences of doing so...

    Hello Friend when you use simple WordPress theme then go to theme-editor-footer.php. You edit or remove from here
