Most likely you've added a first-line indent to Normal style, and the
separator has inherited it. Switch to Normal view, and View | Footnotes. In
the dropdown on the toolbar, choose Footnote Separator. Right-click on the
separator, select Paragraph, and remove the indent.

The line above the footnote is indented beyond the left margin and I can't
figure out how to realign that line with the margin. How do you move the
line
above the footnote?
