My guess is you can't, but you could freeze rows 1-15 and the hide 1-4 etc
I know about hiding and un-hiding but the problem is that, if I needed to edit them, I would then have to un-hide them, edit them, and then re-hide them.
Why not just arrange rows 5, 10 & 15 to be rows 1, 2 & 3 and freeze the top three rows? If needed, move then back to 5, 10 & 15 after you're done or leave them.
I thought about that as well but I found a better solution, which is to just move the rows to a different sheet. I don't need the rows to be on the main sheet, I just need them to be visually next to each other without breaking the structure of the spreadsheet, which moving them to a second sheet would do.
You could also just duplicate the lines. Have the maintainable content in lines 1-3 and add additional lines in lines 5, 10 and 15 which refer to the others via formula (or vice versa If you prefer to edit 5/10/15). To avoid that you change the wrong lines by mistake, you can protect the cells with sheet protection.
