You can use WSL (Windows Subsystem Linux) to run a Linux VM on your windows machine alongside any other applications. I would recommend that.
To be able to select the OS on startup is called dual boot. This is more complicated though so you might not want to start there if you don't know PCs and don't want to put effort into learning.
A Linux version that finds widespread use is called Ubuntu. You likely want the latest stable version.
