A plane is defined by at least three non - collinear points. Two points determine a line. So, to define a plane (using the point - line - plane postulates), since a plane needs at least three non - collinear points, and two points make a line, there must be at least two lines (each line passing through two of those non - collinear points) on any given plane.
