Make sure that the file that it's supposed to read from is in the same directory as the .java/.class file.

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class SumFile
{
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
  {
	int sum = 0;
	try{
		Scanner fileInput = new Scanner(new File("file1.txt"));
		while(fileInput.hasNextInt())
		sum = sum + fileInput.nextInt();
		System.out.println("Sum of integers = " + sum);
	}catch(Exception ex){
		System.out.println("*File Not Found*");
	}
  }
}

Try this code. Hope this would help.
The .txt file, or the file for input is to be with this class file's directory.

why would you compile it as a txt file? not really sure what you mean by that.... what does file1.txt look like?

Yes, you should compile your java file like normal, just make sure to have your file2.txt in the same directory as your program.
This program shouldn't be too hard to write. Just get the first integer and store it. Then get all the other integers and compare it to the first. Keep a count of how many grades are lower than the average and then print this out. Try and write some code to do that and we will help you if you get stuck.
