This neutral (no charge) molecule has a bent linear geometry or an angular geometry, based on its Lewis structure, ::N=N=N:. (with a total of 15 valence electrons), with the dots representing electrons in non-bonding pairs, except for the one unpaired electron. It has a linear molecular geometry, because, as shown, it has only two electron domains or regions (around its central atom), which are more stably situated 180 degrees away from each other (according to the VSEPR theory).
Note: The person asking this question seems to be asking for N3 with no charge on it; but I suspect s/he meant to ask for the azide ion, (N3)-, which would have 16 valence electrons, and that would also give a linear molecular structure.
