That is correct if her main job is not selling cars. Otherwise, you should answer no. Please view the explanation and example below.

You can tell by looking at the basic skills involved in both the work you did to get this 1099-MISC and the work you do at your main job. If these skills are similar, then this 1099-MISC work was like your main job.

Example: Denise is a math teacher who got paid for a side job as a tutor. Tutoring and teaching both involve the basic skill of educating another person. Therefore, tutoring work is like her main job.
