No.
Yes, two vectors with different magnitudes can be combined to give a zero resultant if they are in opposite directions. However, it is not possible for three vectors with different magnitudes to give a zero resultant because they must have specific magnitudes and directions to cancel each other out completely.
Yes, two vectors of different magnitudes can be combined to give a zero resultant if they are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. For three vectors to give a zero resultant, they must form a closed triangle or meet at a common point where the sum of the vectors equals zero.
You should try to visualize this yourself. Draw arrows, representing vectors, on paper; draw them head-to-tail. Try to make the head of the last arrow return to the tail of the first one. The answer is no, and yes.
Yes, three vectors that do not lie in the same plane can give a zero resultant if they form a closed triangle. This can happen when the vectors cancel each other out due to their directions and magnitudes.
Two.Equal magnitudes in opposite directions.
No.

Yes.
-- The minimum magnitude that can result from the combination of two vectors is the difference between their magnitudes. If their magnitudes are different, then they can't combine to produce zero. -- But three or more vectors with different magnitudes can combine to produce a zero magnitude.
The only way that two vectors add up to zero is if they have equal magnitude and opposite direction. If the magnitudes are not equal then no, they cannot give a zero resultant.
Two vectors: no. Three vectors: yes.
Two vectors, no; three vectors yes.
There is no minimum.
