Best Answer

Two lines are not always coplanar. If they intersect or are parallel, then

they're coplanar. But if they're skew, then they're not coplanar.

Example of parallel lines in space:

The top and bottom edges of a wall in your room.

Example of intersecting lines in space:

The top edge and left edge of a wall in your room.

Example of skew lines in space:

The top edge of one wall and the bottom edge of a wall next to it in your room.
