Sometimes Yes, as in Pythagoras' Theorem. Other times No, for as Godel's Incompleteness Theorem shows, there will be complete bodies of knowledge in which there will be truths that cannot be proven, and falsities which cannot be denied. [I paraphrase his theorem.]

Even with new technology there is still no conclusive proof that ghosts are in fact real.

Do bigfoot exit?

I interpret the last word as Exist. Hardly. It's impossible to prove that something doesn't exist, but no "evidence" of Bigfoot that has ever been presented has been true evidence. Evidence makes an answer evident. Some has given very strong indications, but proof is proof. Either it's conclusive or it isn't. So far nothing has been conclusive. The chance of a large primate living undetected by science in North America calls for an extremely intelligent animal, or for a beast that can go invisible.
