Maybe his framework doesn't allow names more than four characters long.

public void CheckDatabaseConnection()
{
try
{
using (new MyDbContext())
{
return true;
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return false;
}
}I think that should be it, from the top of my head
Of course I had to make some assumptions regarding language, framework and database, but they weren't mentioned

void or bool on your method signature return type?

Uhhh... Yes, that was the homework!
Spot the error.
You passed the test.
Good work, young padawan.

1) open an editor
2) start typing the code
3) when coding ready, compile it
... 3a) If compiling errors, solve them
... 3b) If no errors, go to next point
4) test the application and search for runtime errors
... 4a) If runtime errors, solve them
... 4b) If no error, go to next point
5) deploy
is the procedure clear enough?

Here is the code for ADO.NET that opens a SQL database for you...
Note: "csConnectionString" is a class level variable declaration
Friend Sub Execute_OpenConnection(ByRef poSqlConnection As SqlConnection)
Try
poSqlConnection = New SqlConnection(csConnectionString)
poSqlConnection.Open()
Catch loSqlException As SqlException
Throw loSqlException
Catch loException As Exception
Throw loException
End Try
End Sub

No. Sometimes a banana is just a banana.

When he hit the ground and uttered an obsenity if no one was around to hear it would it still be obscene?

Where's the proof anything was uttered?
I mean it's not as if there would be a dead tree lying about to show for it.
So no, would not be obscene, nor even an utterance.
(Unless the cat was watching, I hear they are bringing them out with IoT pretty soon.)

The utterance produced a vibration which is the definition of sound. If a Marine was there to receive the obsenity, it would not be an obsenity.
So the abswer would be a positive maybe.

The banana motif in your question is obviously a manifestaton of a childhood trauma, caused by something or other.
For £200 an hour, a good analyst should be able to discover the cause within a year or two. 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I've just decided I'm gonna try my best not to obsessively burn everything I have to DVD anymore.
My internet connection is pretty slow (5mbps DSL is all I can get), so a long time ago, I decided that "if I'm going to take the time to download it, I might as well burn it to disc". At 20 cents per blank DVD-R, why not?
Moving forward...not so much. For years I've been paying $20 for a spindle of 100 blank DVDs, and they're only getting harder and harder to find at that price, thanks I believe to this lovely tax copyright levy on blank media we have here in Canada, that is causing discs to be more and more expensive over time.
Whereas spinning drives are getting larger and cheaper. It's now cheaper, per GB, to buy hard drives than blank DVDs.
How late to this party am I?

I haven't burnt a CD or DVD in ooooh, 5 or more years.
Everything goes on my NAS: 4 off 4TB HDD in RAID 5, giving me about n12TB of "protected" storage.
And I don't have to hunt through a stack of DVDs going "which bloody one is it on?"
