If the 1099-MISC that you received has an amount in box 7, you should answer Yes to the question asking whether you performed contract work.

Why are you asking? Did you receive a 1099?
There are 17 different kinds of 1099. The most common types are 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, 1099-B, 1099-MISC, 1099-R, and 1099-G. Which type did you receive? If you got a 1099-MISC, which box is the income in?
If you performed work as an independent contractor, the business that you did the work for probably sent you a 1099-MISC with the amount that they paid you in box 7.
