Anyone know the right answer:

Query is not a transaction. True or False.

Thanks.

true. I'd say a transaction is from the start of data insert/update/delete to a commit/rollback in that scope. The last few words are to clarify that commit/rollback in an autonomous transaction (in the oracle sense) doesn't count if it occurs in the main transaction.

Thanks a lot, Guys. I remember I ran into this question when I prepared DBA test. When someone asked me again. I forgot the answer.

People who think query is a transaction usually says that query hold some resource until it finishes. It problem needs an official answer that it is just a connection, not a transaction.
