I was wondering if I could buy an adapter that is HDMI to USB-C, and plug my Macbook Air to a monitor. Also, if I can, what HDMI cable and adaptor I would need to use.

MacBook Air, macOS 15.1
If you mean a cable that would go from an HDMI port on your MacBook to a USB port on your monitor, then no, to the best of my knowledge that's not possible. And I'm not sure what sort of display would require that rather than just HDMI to HDMI. The reverse, USB-C on your Mac to HDMI on your display, is quite common. Search the web for "usb-c to HDMI" and you'll find a number of options for adapters.

I’ve been using CalDigit USB-C to HDMI dongles on Apple products since 2017 — driving a wide variety of displays — with never an issue.
usb-c / hdmi cable is very common. A search will result in hundreds of places where to purchase.
I would like to add, if you need an HDMI cable longer than about 10 feet in length, you will want to shop for an ACTIVE cable such as the Monoprice High Speed HDMI Cable of an appropriate length.
Could I buy an HDMI to USB-C adapter for a Macbook Air monitor connection?
