The problem states that it wants the output list printed in 'increasing order'. It should be more clear what this means. I initially interpreted this to mean that [1,1,0] would come before [3,0,0] because 1+1+0=2 is less than 3+0+0=3. But this is not the order that the comprehension list method would generate the list. And would likely involve some method of sorting a 3D array that many new users would not know at this point, so I'm assuming this is not what is meant. This problem is not clarified with the chosen example values of x=1, y=1, z=1, and N=2.
The problem could be addressed by just using larger example values, allowing us to infer from the example output which interpretation of 'increasing order' is intended.
