Can someone else use it with a different carrier if I just deactivated my Sprint phone?

I just deactivated my iPhone 6+ and I sold it to someone. Before I sold it, I had factory reset it. Now they can't unlock it because it says that the carrier has to release the phone. What does that mean? Can they now use the phone with another carrier??
