Calculate the coordinates of three points, and plot the points on the graph. Draw a straight line through them.To calculate the coordinates, assign any value for "x", replace in the equation, and solve for "y".Note that two points are enough in theory; the third is for additional verification, in case you commit some mistake.
Three non-co-linear points are sufficient to uniquely define a single plane.
Any 4 points in the Cartesian plane determine a unique equation that is of degree at most three (i.e., a "cubic" equation). It is, of course, possible that the 4 points actually lie on a degree two ("quadratic"), a degree one ("linear"), or a degree zero ("constant") equation. However, if the 4 points do not lie on a constant, linear, or quadratic curve, then they will like on a unique cubic curve. In general, N points will determine a unique curve of degree at most (N-1).
In case any of the points has been miscalculated you will not have a straight line - alerting to to the fact that there is a mistake.

A plane. A circle can also pass through three non-co-linear points.

No, they are simply three expressions: there is no equation - linear or otherwise.
Single answer. Coincidental (same equation), No solution.

co-linear points?
Yes. Three co-linear points define a line, and therefore also lie on a plane, but those three points do not necessarily define only one plane. You need three points, not co-linear, to uniquely define a plane. See Related Links below for more information.
A linear equation in three variable.
This starts with the collocation circle to go through the three points on the curve. First write the equation of a circle. Then write three equations that force the collocation circle to go through the three points on the curve. Last, solve the equations for a, b, and r.
