The dot-product of two vectors tells about the angle between them. If the dot-product is positive, then the angle between the two vectors is between 0 and 90 degrees. When the dot-product is negative, the angle is more than 90 degrees. Therefore, the dot-product can be any value (positive, negative, or zero). For example, the dot product of the vectors and is -1*1+1*0+1*0 = -1 which is negative.

Can sum of two vectors be numeric?
No, the sum of two vectors cannot be a scalar.
Is it possible to combine two vectors of different magnitude to give a zero resultant if not can three vectors be combine?
Two vectors: no. Three vectors: yes.
Can the vector product of two vectors be negative?
no .....the scalar product of two vectors never be negative Yes it can If A is a vector, and B = -A, then A.B = -A2 which is negative. Always negative when the angle is between the vectors is obtuse.
Can the resultant of two vectors of the same magnitude be equal to the magnitude of either of the vector. How?
Yes - if the vectors are at an angle of 60 degrees. In that case, the two vectors, and the resultant, form an equilateral triangle.Yes - if the vectors are at an angle of 60 degrees.

Can the sum of two vectors be equal to either of the vectors explain?
No, the sum of two vectors cannot be equal to either of the vectors individually. In vector addition, the resultant vector is determined by the magnitude and direction of the individual vectors. The sum of two vectors represents the combination of their effects, resulting in a new vector with different properties than the original vectors.
