That is a very good question...there are 7 things that can prove wheather it is a living or a non-living things (note- the object or thing does not have to have all of theese charectoristics)
-it grows
-exchange of gasses
-has cells (DNA)
-needs nutrients
-produces waste
-reproduces
-needs water
as you can see fire does not have all of theese but it does have a couple it grows when you throw wood in it, it produces waste (ash) it needs nutrient like an obvious one ( oxygen) but on the other hand it definitly DOESNT need water it doesnt really exchange in gasses, but in the end it could be proven that fire is non-living, which means it never had/was been alive.

fire is non-living, as it is not made of cells, and does not excrete waste.
non living because, like plants are living they produce oxygen not carbon dioxide...
There is an interesting philosophical exercise that s this question.
Life, all life, has several specific characteristics. You can determine if something is alive by looking at these:
ing "no" to anyone of these would mean it is not alive. by certain definitions, fire is alive, although not commonnly accepted as such.
Fire is a non-living thing, though has a few qualities of living things.
fire is a result of a chemical reaction
It can't because it is NOT a living organism.
nonliving
A waterfall is nonliving because water is not a living thing.
Non-living
All are made from matter.
no. fire is nonliving because it is not made of cells and is 100% predictable when interacting. It also has no reason or instinct.
fire is a nonliving thing because it does not show all the characteristics of a living thing....
Any and all heat, like flame, is nonliving. A forest fire is flame and is therefore nonliving.
It can't because it is NOT a living organism.
Nonliving
NOnliving, biotic is living
the earth is nonliving but has living organisms on it
nonliving
