The numbers column is very wide, and this is bothers me. I want to open more workspaces. Therefore I want it to be narrow. How do I do this?

I use PHPStorm Version 2017.1.4. In this version there is an option to hide gutter icons, which reduces the line number column width. Even if there are no gutter icons visible, the space is still allocated. If you don't need these icons, you can choose to hide them in the settings and the column width will be reduced.
Navigate in settings to: Editor > General > Gutter Icons
Uncheck: "Show Gutter Icons"

It seems that is not possible because the place is used by others functionality of PHPStorm. Others questions on StakOverflow deal with disable this other functionality on this place but is not possible too.
We have nothing action on this place of PHPStorm. Use or no functionality.

Make sure "editor.distraction.free.mode" isn't enabled in Registry. Otherwise this is a bug: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-148002

Disable the «Editor» → «General» → «Gutter Icons» → «Show gutter icons» feature:
You can also set a keyboard shortcut to toggle gutter icons:
