There are NO values for the variable for which the statement is true. "b > 0" means that the original statement is true whenever the value of b is greater than 0. So, "no solution" and "b > 0" definitely do NOT mean the same thing. Please re-read Skeeter's response, and then decide which is the correct answer.
