When a piece of code is commented we say just that, it's "commented out". But when it's not commented out, what is that?
Uncommented isn't quite the same. Active? It's definitely not commented in.
What's the best way to refer to the act of de-commenting out code?

Comment-out definition Filters. (programming) To temporarily disable a section of source code by converting it into a comment.
(programming, transitive) To convert (text that has been commented out) back into source code so that it will no longer be ignored by the compiler or interpreter.
Therefore to “uncomment” a line of code is done by removing the “//“ and causes the compiler to execute that line of code.
You can comment out one or more lines of code in any C/C++ editor view. The leading characters // are added to the beginning of each line when commenting one or more lines of code. You can also block comment multiple lines of code using the characters /* */ .
Uncommented is the most common word for that.

I call code which isn't "commented out" simply "code"
