My version is 2015b. I use Mac.
x=linspace(-2,2,20);
y=x';
z=y*x;
surf(x,y,z)
And the output has nothing, shownd in picture.

Z must be a matrix. In your code, it is only a vector. Follow the eamples on the surf documentation page. You will find meshgrid helpful for this purpose.
x=linspace(-2,2,20);
y=x';
[X,Y] = meshgrid(x,y);
Z = X.*Y;
surf(x,y,Z)
