get_month_link() doesn’t use any template. It just creates a link to date based archives. The actual template used is decided by a rather complicated template hierarchy system managed by Core. Essentially there is a cascading sequence of files that will be used if those files are provided by the theme:
date.phparchive.phpindex.php
