Being picky, I think you mean you want to fit a line to 3-dimensional data points (since a line is by definition 1-dimensional). In R, you can find a line of best fit to data with an arbitrary number of dimensions using the function 'line'. Type ?line for help, and example(line) to see how the function is used. If the problem is a linear regression, use the function 'lm' instead. Regards, Richie.
