Is it possible to make a transaction with no transaction fee?
As Raghav Sood noted in a comment, transactions with no transaction fee are not transmitted by standard Bitcoin nodes - so your zero-fee transaction normally won't reach a miner. In theory you could make some special arrangement with a miner but it's hard to see why they would want to do that.

Choosing a higher initial fee tends to result in quicker confirmation. If your wallet supports Replace By Fee (RBF) you can use that subsequently to improve the likelihood of a quicker confirmation.
Standard nodes will not broadcast 0 fee transactions, so you likely won't be able to reach a miner at all, unless you have some special path to them – Raghav Sood – 2019-10-30T10:21:35.050
@Raghav - thanks, I'd forgotten that. – RedGrittyBrick – 2019-10-30T10:59:57.253
How do you choose a higher fee incase of a paper wallet? – Zheer – 2019-10-30T13:54:25.703
