"Collinear" means "lie on the same straight line".

So a single point can't be collinear or non-collinear, because there's nothing for it

to be the "same" as.

Two points are always collinear, because you can always draw one straight line

between two points.

When you get to three points, then there's a question. Any two of them make

a straight line, and then the third one may or may not lie on the same line. If it

does, then the three points are collinear. If it doesn't, then they're not.
