Continuing from the comments, this should do:

final_answer_check = True # a boolean flag 

while final_answer_check: # while the flag is set to true
 try:
 final_answer = str(input("Do you want a copy of the answers?"))
 if final_answer.lower() == "no":
 final_answer_check = False
 except:
 pass

EDIT:

A better approach however could be to use a infinite loop with a break:

while True:
 try:
 final_answer = input("Do you want a copy of the answers?")
 if final_answer.lower() == "no":
 break
 except:
 pass

OUTPUT:

Do you want a copy of the answers?no

Process finished with exit code 0

First, you need to define the variable final_answer_check and set the value into True. If you build your code in a block of try...except, you need to make it complete, not only try.

final_answer_check = True
while final_answer_check == True:
 try:
 final_answer = str(input("Do you want a copy of the answers?"))
 if final_answer.lower() == "no":
 final_answer_check = False
 else:
 final_answer_check = True
 except:
 print ("your another code should be here")
