What is the definition of opposite numbers?

The additive opposite of a positive is a negative, and the opposite of a negative is a positive. If you reverse the sign twice (opposite of opposite) you have the original number. The same applies to an inverse (multiplicative opposite): the inverse of any inverse for a nonzero number is the original number. n (1/n)(n) = n

What number could divide by nine but not by three?

Technically, any number can be divided by any and all non-zero numbers, but I'll assume you mean evenly. There is no number that is evenly divisible by nine but not three because 9 is equal to 3x3. So when you divide by 9 it is the same as dividing by 3 twice.
