Can the following question be considered a statistical question and why or why not?

Do students at Bryan Middle School exercise?

Yes, it specifies the population
No, it does not specify the population
Yes, it anticipates enough variability in responses
No, it does not anticipate enough variability in responses

I'm giving 25 points for this since the people who answered last question similar to this were not smart enough to ask the bloody question maker to add the answers for the multiple choice.

No it is not, because although it specifies the population, it does not anticipate variability in responses. It is phrased as if the answer is going to be yes or no (100% or 0%), when in reality some students will exercise and some will not.
