1. Emma is not closing her eyes.
This sentence is correct. The negative form of the present continuous for "Emma" is "is not closing."

2. They are not making a dog house.
This sentence is correct. The negative form of the present continuous for "They" is "are not making."

3. George and Luke are not answering the phone.
This sentence is correct. The negative form of the present continuous for "George and Luke" is "are not answering."

Explanation:
To form negative sentences in the present continuous, we use the helping verb "be" in its negative form (am not, is not, are not) followed by the main verb in the present participle form (-ing form).

In the first sentence, we have "Emma," so we use "is not" before the main verb "closing." Therefore, the correct negative sentence is "Emma is not closing her eyes."

In the second sentence, we have "They," so we use "are not" before the main verb "making." Therefore, the correct negative sentence is "They are not making a dog house."

In the third sentence, we have "George and Luke," so we use "are not" before the main verb "answering." Therefore, the correct negative sentence is "George and Luke are not answering the phone."

It's important to pay attention to the subject (the person or thing performing the action) and choose the appropriate form of the helping verb "be" (am, is, are) in its negative form, and then add the present participle form (-ing form) of the main verb.
