Because earth's orbit around the sun, and the moon's orbit around the earth are not co-planar; they are not on the same plane.
A solar eclipse can only happen at new moon - but they don't happen at every new moon.
No, it doesn't take place on every new moon day but yes, on some of them.
We see solar eclipses only during New Moon, but not every New Moon is accompanied by a solar eclipse.
A solar eclipse can only take place at the time of New Moon.

No single eclipse ... solar or lunar ... is ever visible from every place on earth.No single solar eclipse is ever visible from every place or even half of the earth.
well no not at all
Solar Eclipse
Yes, because the moon is is not covered by anything when the solar eclipse occurs.
A total solar eclipse is when the Moon and Sun are just the right place and distance away from each other when the Moon FULLY covers the Sun. A partial solar eclipse is when the Moon isn't quite in the right place or isn't near enough to the Earth to cover the Sun to the full.
This named a 'Solar Eclipse'. The is also a 'Lunar Eclipse' , when the Earth blocks the sunlight from a full moon. The Moon orbits the Earth once every 29 days. The lunar orbit and the solar orbit are not co-planar. . They are angled at about 2 degrees. Consequently, we do neither see a Solar Eclipse at every New Moon, nor a Lunar Eclipse t every Full Moon.
