If there are physical requirements for the job, they were listed in the job posting to which you applied. If there are physical requirements, the interviewer is assuming you reviewed the job posting before applying for the position, and as such, there will not be any limitations.
If you answer no and physical requirements are mentioned in the job posting, the interviewer may assume you are unprepared for the interview.
