Difference of two whole number is not always a whole number.

For any two whole numbers a & b, a - b = whole number only when a is greater than or equal to b.

Wrong!

Even if a is less than b, the difference is still a whole number. Whole numbers can be negative.

So the correct answer to the question is "YES".
