No, if the lines were in the same plane they would be parallel and never intersect

What is a noncoplanar its not parallel and do not intersect?
In space with 3 or more dimensions, there are infinitely many pairs of lines that are not parallel and do not intersect.
Non-intersecting lines in different planes are?
They are called skew lines. Explanation: In 3 space, parallel lines must never intersect AND must be in the same plane. If they fail to intersect and are in different planes we call them skew lines.
What is non parallel?
As for example perpendicular lines are non parallel lines.
When are skew lines coplanar?
Never! Coplanar means that the two lines lie in the same two-dimensional plane. The only way that two lines do not intersect in two-dimensional space is if they are parallel. And by definition, skew lines are not allowed to be parallel, either.So essentially there is no such thing as skew lines that only occupy two dimensions. Skew lines must be in three dimensions or higher in order to (1) not intersect and (2) not be parallel with each other.
How can a line and plan intersect in space?
A line cannot intersect in space. Space is a wide open space.

What do two lines intersect at?
two lines intersect at a single point in a 2D space assuming they are not parallel. in 3D space they can intersect again at a single point, or an infinite amount of points.
What Lines that neither intersect nor are parallel?
If lines neither intersect nor are parallel, then they must be drawn in 3D space, or a higher dimension.(These lines are called skew lines)
What are Lines that are not parallel and will never intersect?
They are asymptote lines in which as a curve gets closer and closer to them they will never intersect with each other.
What is non parallel?
As for example perpendicular lines are non parallel lines.
Where do two lines intersect?
In Euclidean space, they could intersect along their whole lengths (in the lines are identical), at a point if they are coplanar and not parallel, or nowhere if they are parallel or skew.
Will parallel lines intersect?
In Euclidean space, never. But they can in non-Euclidean geometries.
What is a solution to a system of equations graphically?
Graphically, it is the point of intersection where the lines (in a linear system) intersect. If you have 2 equations and two unknowns, then you have a 2 lines in a plane. The (x,y) coordinates of the point where the 2 lines intersect represent the values which satisfies both equations. If there are 3 equations and 3 unknowns, then you have lines in 3 dimensional space. If all 3 lines intersect at a point then there is a solution to the system. With more than 3 variables, it is difficult to visualize more dimensions, though.

What are skew line segments?
Skew line segments are lines in space which never intersect.
Are lines with three dimensions which do not intersect are not parallel?
Non-intersecting lines in 3-D space may be parallel but need not be.
