    It's PowerQuery so it is just nested if then else statements:

    if [Column] >= 0 and [Column] <= 0 then "Very Low" else if [Column] >= 10 and [Column] <= 30 then "Low" else ...

    DAX would be cleaner. SWITHC(TRUE(), ...) is your friend here:

    Column = 
  SWITCH(TRUE(),
    [Column] >= 0 && [Column] <= 9, "Very Low",
    [Column] >= 10 && [Column] <= 30, "Low",
    [Column] >= 31 && [Column] <= 50, "Medium-Low",
    [Column] >= 51 && [Column] <= 60, "Medium",
    [Column] >= 61 && [Column] <= 70, "Medium-High",
    [Column] >= 71 && [Column] <= 90, "High",
    "Very High"
