Linear means line so collinear means on the same line. Non-collinear then means not on the same line. Hope that helped =D
Since collinear is points that lie on the same line, and you need two points to form a line so those 2 points are collinear. So the opposite of that is noncollinear.
In order for three or more points to be collinear, they must lie on the same line. Two points would always be collinear. Noncollinear are points that do not lie in the same line.
Non collinear refers to three or more points that are not all on the same straight line.
Yes. You require three non-collinear points to uniquely define a plane!
I think the question you mean to ask is, "Do three collinear points make a triangle?" Linear is simply the adjective form of "line", "collinear" is used to describe points that lie on the same line. (Two points not only can be collinear, but always are, so it makes little sense to describe them as such).Collinear points cannot make a triangle, a triangle requires three noncollinear points.
what is noncollinear because it was a point

Collinear points are points that lie on the same line. Noncollinear points do not lie on the same line. Any two points are always collinear, i.e. forming a line. Three or more points can be collinear along a single line.Collinear points lies on the same straight line.
Non collinear refers to three or more points that are not all on the same straight line.

3 non-collinear points define one plane.
Points are collinear if they lie on the same line.

Only one plane can pass through 3 non-collinear points.
Yes. In fact, given any three non-collinear points, there is one (and only one) circle that passes through all three points.
Yes. In fact any three points that are not collinear define a plane and therefore MUST lie on a plane.
