Are they teachers ?
They are not teachers.
I am not a thief.
They are thieves.
'Are' is a plural form of the verb 'to be' therefore the noun must agree with the verb. (i.e. the noun must become plural)
When using the singular form of 'to be' you must put a determiner before the noun.

They = plural pronoun
He = singular pronoun
Ex: They are teachers (plural). He is a teacher (singular).
