It is used in California (and increasingly elsewhere) as a sarcastic or emphatic way to say "no," typically in response to an obvious or expected negative, or to dismiss a suggestion. People typically say "Yeah, no, that's not happening" or "Yeah, no, I'm good." The term originated in late 20th century California speech, influenced by surfer and Valley girl vernacular, where "yeah, no" became a common discourse marker for polite but firm rejection, and has since spread widely through media and social networks.
