This question is all about how you interpret it. Having a disagreement doesn't necessarily translate to conflict or a negative exchange. Also, a conflict can simply imply something is incompatible with something else, such as a scheduling conflict, or a conflict of interest. So, when answering this question, focus on the positives, and on professionalism, emotional maturity, and collaborative problem-solving. You want to come across as part of the solution rather than part of the problem.

"I recently worked on a group project where the individual who was appointed to lead the team wasn't effective in communicating with a very assertive member of the group. This individual was very spirited and at a certain point positioned themself in the leadership position which was contradictory to the project. So, I pointed out the situation and reminded everyone who was assigned to lead the group. The assertive individual then said something to the effect that our leader wasn't a good leader. I then suggested that this was a leadership learning opportunity for some of us, and a lesson in teamwork and collaboration for others. I think that confused them because at that point they fell silent. Ultimately, I felt it was my duty to speak up because I get along with everyone really well, and I am well-liked, and I felt comfortable doing so in a way that wouldn't offend anyone. So, from then on, we supported each other, and the project was a success."
