    You will need to edit your themes header.php file to remove this text. You'll likely find it uses the WordPress "bloginfo" function to display this information.

    Function Reference/bloginfo « WordPress Codex

    Make SURE that you backup your theme before attempting to modify it!

    As mywebwork mentioned, you will have edit your header.php file and remove those text.

    You can easily edit header.php file via Theme Editor in Wordpress or via FTP. I would recommend you to take a backup before you edit anything and I also recommend on using FTP to edit.
