Answer 1

You can simply use ReadLine once before you start processing the lines:
Using reader
reader.ReadLine())
Dim line As String
While (InlineAssignHelper(line, reader.ReadLine())) IsNot Nothing
list.Add(line)
End While
End Using

Answer 2

Call read line before while, also check if the line is not blank and then only go to loop.
This will skip your first line.
Code something like :
Using reader
Dim line As String
// if reader.ReadLine() is not empty
While (InlineAssignHelper(line, reader.ReadLine())) IsNot Nothing
list.Add(line)
End While
// end if
End Using
To skip nth line (2nd in your case) use :
Using reader
Dim line As String
// count = 0, n = 1 // 0 = first line, 1 = 2nd line etc
While (InlineAssignHelper(line, reader.ReadLine())) IsNot Nothing
// if(count++ != n)
list.Add(line)
// end if
End While
End Using
