Firm asking if I have other deadlines before they send me a decision- is it a bad sign if I say no?

Hi, earlier this week, a firm I interviewed for last week (SA 2023) reached out to ask if I had any other deadlines (exploding offers) that could influence my ability to join their bank. Would it be a bad sign if I said no? I'm not in the process with any other banks.
