Is there some sort of code to link the two?
Do I have to do something different in a text editor to make the pages link?
Do I have to position the CSS file somewhere different in the site folder?

Cheers

to link an external stylesheet you have to write the following in the head of the html page:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" />

the filename in href="" is the name of your css-file. when you have it in another folder than the html-file, then you have to give the relative path. for example href="css/style.css".

or when you have for example you html-file in a folder called "html" and you css-file in a folder called "css" then you must write href="../css/style.css".
