You can put this solution on YOUR website!
No it is impossible because 3 points are the minimum number of points needed to draw a plane.
No matter how you arrange those points, a unique plane will go through all of them.
So this means that 3 points are ALWAYS coplanar.
So that's why it's impossible to draw three points that are noncoplanar
