Ubuntu 18.04 (and newer) uses netplan, which is different to the older configurations of Ubuntu.

Open the .yml file in the /etc/netplan/ folder:

Edit the file:

Replace eth0 with the network interface of your vps ( you can find it by using the command ip addr)

Once you are done, you can use CTRL + X to exit the file, Y to save the file and ENTER to confirm.

Open the configuration file in the /etc/network folder:

Edit the file:
