If she has a visitor visa it can't be extended beyond six months. She must either leave the UK or, if appropriate, apply for a different category of visa.
If your sister-in-law has a visitor visa valid for less than 6 months, she may be able to extend it up to the 6 month limit. If she's got a different category of visa altogether, she may be able to extend it beyond the 6 month limit (which is only rigid for visitor visas).

If you get confused (which is easy to do on that website), phone the UK Visa Services helpline on 0845 010 5555. (Unlike many of the expensive, commercial, so-called visa helplines you'll find advertised on the internet, that number goes to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and is only charged at local call rates).
