no. On your paper you should say "My experiment did not support my hypothesis." That is what your teacher would expect.

Perhaps.
1) It could be poor experimental design, bad data collection, bad operationalization of your theoretical concepts, testing done outside of scope conditions defined by your theory, etc.
2) It could be that your theory is not supported by the evidence.
