It can help to think about theorems like this by restating them as a puzzle asking for a counterexample.

Given N points, N > 2, can you arrange them in a Euclidean plane so that (1) they are not all on the same line, and (2) every line that goes through two of the points must also go through at least one more of the points?

The theorem says that you cannot do this.
