Actually, no. What's highlighted in that screenshot is just a part of the page. Where the blue line appears is where that section ends. The copyright notice thinks that where the blue line ends is where the bottom of the page is, so it appears just above the line. This also prevents me from clicking on any of the pages, because the area highlighted seems to be acting as a kind of layer. I don't really understand what's causing it, and I've tried removing that code, but it doesn't actually do anything beneficial.

To deal with the line, you should probably be focusing on the code of the line itself - whether you're trying to remove it or just change the settings. You might also want to see if there's a tag within the main page dictating where it ends, which could be wrong and clashing with the code for the line.

I'm not sure what you mean about the highlighted area preventing you from clicking on anything on the page. It could just be that you only need to remove one line of code (generally, I really advise against deleting or editing too many things at once. Deleting fewer lines or checking each line to see if it's what you'd like to change takes more time but also helps you identify and fix the problem). Was the layout already like that when you installed it? If so, maybe you should consider a different layout if this one is causing you so much trouble.

Here, this might make more sense:

As you can see, my copyright notice is really just in the middle of the page. That's because there is an area (highlighted in blue) from the top of the page to where it shows in the screenshot that is acting as a sort of layer over the top of the page, disabling me from interacting with anything it covers, if that makes any sense.

The line I speak of is something I can remove easily. My problem is the area above it, as shown in the screenshot.
 
So, the copyright line isn't within that layer?

That "layer" is called "post hover" in the tags, so I assume it's meant to be a "hover over" effect, like tags showing or the background becoming brighter when you hover over the posts on your blog. I don't know why it would be keeping you from interacting with the rest of the page because that's not supposed to happen. The copyright notice is probably thinking it's where the page ends because I'm guessing that tag should be spanning the whole page, so that you can get the effect it's supposed to cause from any posts in the page.

You could try to change the copyright notice's code so that it's not set to depend on the post hover tag if that's what's causing the issue, or to expand the post hover tag and look inside it to see if there's something you can change. If all else fails, you've said that it didn't do anything beneficial to delete it, but unless something important is activated by hovering (like reblog buttons), you could try to delete it anyway.
