Hi Bee To make your header background image fit change background-size:cover and add "center" to your background, as per below:

.main-header {
  padding-top: 10px;
  padding-bottom: 20px;
  height: 550%;
  width: 100%;
  background: url("../img/flower.jpg") center no-repeat;
  background-size:cover;
}

To make your nav horizontal and without an underline just add this to your CSS file:

.main-nav li {
  display:inline-block;
}
.main-nav li a {
  text-decoration: none;
}
