My gut tells me that you can't on your specific machine. Most motherboard 
vendors have deprecated BIOS support in favor of UEFI, and Intel has 
specifically said that BIOS will not be supported in 2020. Best get used to the 
idea of running with UEFI, as much as we all hate it.

Perhaps what you should be looking to do is disable SecureBoot, and then 
looking into installing Linux Mint 18 in UEFI mode? I'd wager that the MInt 
installer supports UEFI. Worst case you install Ubuntu or one of its variants, 
they definitely support UEFI.
