There was a time I ended up convincing my manager and things went my way.
There was a time my manager ended up convincing me and we did things their way.
There was a time we just couldn't agree and I ended up doing things their way because "they're the boss".
There was a time we ended up putting it to a sort of "vote" for the entire team.
There was a time we made a compromise we could both live with.
There was a time another team member jumped in with an even better solution that either of us thought of.
There was a time I ended up quitting my job because we didn't agree and he was a gigantic dick about it for no reason.

All these things actually happened over my career, and no single one accurately describes how I'd deal with a situation where I disagree with my manager. I'd generally answer it like that, although I'd leave that last one out for obvious reasons (there was also a lot of build-up/context to that one that would take ages to explain, and is hard to explain in the first place).
