Can I also change this similarly or does the project have to stick to the template provided?
You're welcome to change function names, parameters, and return types as you wish (or not even use them). DO NOT change the numeric preprocessor constants near the top of the file, else your code won't match the sample solution. It's often a good practice to print a program's name in its error messages, and argv[0] provides that for you.
