My guess is that it's a new computer without an OS
so there can be no upgrade.

Good question
It has either no operating system or it only has a utility patition set up. Either way, you could not do a upgrade.
Be careful of questions like this. When I did the A+ exam, there was a lot of near matches for the questions. I had to use the rule out process on several question.

The clue is in the question,
