No, if three vectors do not lie in a plane, they cannot give zero resultant.
Explanation:
Let A, B and C be three vectors. If they give zero resultant, then
A+B+C=0
or, A= -(B+C)
Hence, they will produce zero resultant, if A is equal to negative of vector (B+C). The vector (B+C) lies in the plane of B and C. Hence, A will be equal to negative of (B+C) if A, B and C all lie in a plane.
A negative of a vector represents the direction opposite to the reference direction. It means that the magnitude of two vectors are same but they are opposite in direction.
For example, if A and B are two vectors that have equal magnitude but opposite in direction, then vector A is negative of vector B.
