values of $\zeta$ function are linearly independent? Are the elements of the set $\{\zeta(2n+1)| n\in \mathbb{N}\}$  $\mathbb{Q}$-linearly independent? 
 A: People have been exerting steady effort to prove/disprove irrationality of the Riemann zeta values in your list. Of course, $\zeta(3)$ is known to be irrational due to Roger Apery. Such investigations, among others, motivated the question of linear independence. As Felipe commented, however, not much is known, apart from the following article:

La fonction zêta de Riemann prend une infinité de valeurs irrationnelles aux entiers impairs. [There are infinitely many irrational values of the Riemann zeta function at odd integers]
C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Sér. I Math. 331 (2000), no. 4, 267–270.


The article is available online here.

That is the state-of-the-art for the present issue you raised.
