So what do you think?
Can you describe in words what will happen?
Do you know the relevant equations?

I don't know the exact efftect the force causes but i think body will oscillate and spring acts like a thread as in simple pendulum concept.
The force applied is not normal or perpendicular to the spring property directions so it me act like a simple thread or even the spring may undergo similar concept like cantilever beam. just i am sharing the thoughts.
I think i may be right upto 80% but not sure. Is it right?

I'd say you are on the right track.
If the spring is capable of resisting the sideways force, you can model it as a cantilever beam. If not, model it as a thread.
