Hi.

There is an option under Settings > Search where you can select one of the pre installed options, I use DuckDuckGo and you can delete those you do not want.

The Yahoo search engine likely got added by an Extension install or update or by a external software. The desktop Firefox web browser has not come with a Yahoo search engine as one of the default options ever since the Firefox 57.0 to current Releases.
