This question gives you a chance to show your ability to overcome adversity and handle yourself with integrity during a time of failure. Your goal will be to prove that you can cope with failure in a productive way that leads to making the situation right and learning lessons for the future. Think of a situation where you can highlight both of these things, and don't hesitate to tell your interviewer the reasons the failure occurred. Your interview fully understands that you are a human that makes mistakes, and as long as you learned from the failure, you will be in great standing with them.
