Statement and subjective are not two mutually exclusive terms. You can have a subjective statement and an objective statement.

Your dress is ugly. (subjective statement) - opinion
Your dress is orange. (objective statement) - fact (can be proven)

So what you are really asking is if this is a statement of opinion or fact. So I would go with the latter, as this statement most likely can be proven right or wrong.

it depends who was saying it. say you had been set school work and if a friend was to say that your last answer was incorrect then it would be subjective because that is his opinion he has no experience so his comment would be based on his personal believes. if a teacher was to say it then it would be logical or objective because he has experience has set the work and is likely to be correct.

It's a statement because "incorrect" implies an independent, factually correct answer.

i think it is objective if it is a logic thing..like a math problem. But if it has to do with writing, then it is subjective if sometone thinks its right or wrong.
