No, you are not required to file a tax return if your income was less than the Standard Deduction for your filing status.

For 2018 the Standard Deduction was

Single $12,000

Head of Household $18,000

Married Filing Joint $24,000

Married Filing Separate $12,000

For 2019 the Standard Deduction is

Single $12,200

Head Of Household $18,350

Married Filing Joint $24,400

Married Filing Separate $12,200
