Optic cable
I am renovating my family room and want to change placement of TV. But the optic cable is too short. Where can I buy a much longer cable about 20 feet

By "Optik cable", do you mean "Ethernet Cable" ?
If so .. you can buy them in various lengths at Home Depot. This one : 25 Foot Ethernet - Cat 5e grade - Home Depot - costs $22.45 .

No I really do mean the optic cable that goes from the wall jack to the WiFi modem has a green end to it

Ethernet cables are cheaper and easier to get than fiber optic patch cables. You can just move the Optik TV box and connect it to the router with a longer Ethernet cable.

Would need to know what the wall outlet is configured for.
Does the connector look like this (Ethernet)
or is it like this (Cable):
Either should be available at Best Buy or other electronics/computer stores.
