Lion is not really supported for R2016a but it is generally expected to work.

However, if you are at Lion, the implication might be that you are running a PowerPC based Mac. PowerPC cpus are not supported; R2007b was the last release supported on PowerPC

Alternately, you might be running an old device with one of the first generation Intel CPUs; those are not necessarily supported.

Lion is supported for R2014b. Matlab R2015a to R2016b are not supported anymore.

PowerPC technology is supported until MacOSX 10.5.8.
