They lie in the same plane, but they don't necessarily have to lie on the same line.
Every triangle consists of three points that are coplanar but non-colinear.

Coplanar Points are points that lie on the same line.
Collinear points are points that lie on the same line, while coplanar points are points that lie on the same plane.
Yes, of course! By definition a line is a planar figure, and all the points of the line are therefore coplanar.
Three or more points are collinear if they are all in the same straight line. They are non collinear if at least one of them is not on the same line as the rest. Four or more points are coplanar if they are all in the same plane. They are non coplanar if at least one of them is not on the same plane as the rest.
