Entry Level ''Uncharacterized'' Military Separation

I received an Entry Level separation from the military 17 years back. The discharge was classified as uncharacterized. I was under the asumption that this type of military seperation equated to not having served active military. I am now apply for a job where this question is being asked and wondering if it is accceptable to answer no or am I required to disclose with a yes? Thanks.
