Hi

I think you have two options for this request:
1. Block calls completely form a specific number by adding it to the "block list" on jour phone. To enable this feature open the phone app (the one used to make phone calls) and tap more and then select settings. Within the settings screen tap Call blocking option and later Block list. There you can add individual numbers to block or block all calls from anonymous calls.

2. Your second options is do not disturb. This option will allow calls and messages to be received, but you won't get notified by a tone or the screen will light up. For more details on how to setup and use do not disturb you can go to the following Android Central post Inside Android M's new Do Not Disturb mode | Android Central
