If I was the one asking the question, I would avoid using the word "argument", in all honest. It would be more like, "Tell me about a situation where you and your manager disagreed. How did you work to resolve it?"
Arguing is conflict, and destructive behavior - HR people don't want that because it leads to headaches (at best). Arguing leads to "toxic" workplaces which lead to lawsuits. On the other hand, disagreement is natural, common, and sometimes essential to growth. So the interviewer should be asking about times you disagreed with another person and then worked to resolve it between you two without HR - rather than a time you came into conflict with a coworker.
