In nutshell, it can make your site shine in Google Search results. you can't fix the 404 errors through GSC but you get a report from there, it called as a "indexing coverage issues" not only the 404 errors, if there any sources blocked from robots.txt or 500 errors or any schema related errors also come on that area. There are two main reasons to happening to the crawl errors, let me talk this later, Now, I will explain you how to fix the 404 errors for your website:

GSC is one of the easiest way to find 404 errors not to fix the errors.

If you have deleted any pages from your site or changed any URL path, you will see the 404 errors, while crawling the Googlebot, unable to access a specific URL not your overall site. that's why GSC is giving you a report what are the 404 pages you are having and remind us to fix them. you have to find out the errors from GSC and fix it from your website/server, once you fixed the error, you can validate and re-index the page via GSC.

Hope you can understand it clearly, if you need any further details, please ask me!
Thank you so much for this explanation Katren, Now I am clear about it. can you tell me what is 500 errors?
