Let’s say a wife goes to the doctor and when asked about firearms in the home she answers yes but there is no record of a firearm purchase. Is there reasonable suspicion they were possibly obtained illegally?
An appropriate answer can be: "I will neither confirm nor deny an answer to the relevance of that question." . . . the Gov't uses a similar response to certain questions all the time :-)

Unless a state requires firearms to be registered, I don't see how it could be.
Now if you lived in a communist state like IL that requires all firearm owners to have a FOID card and no one at that address has one I'm sure it would raise some questions.
I think everybody is in agreement the answer should have been no or none of your business, however this scenario has already stipulated she has answered yes. Asking for the bullet back doesn’t work.
Angela, do you think that would be enough to execute a search?
Is the doctor reporting this info to anyone? They would have to report the answer to some government agencies to trigger a search for firearm purchases.
I don't know, there's too many unknowns. Like B&B said, why is he asking and what is he doing with the info? Is it for some sort of study? Is he reporting it to the ATF? Does anyone in the house have any prior convictions/warrants?
In this day and age and in the state of IL it would not surprise me if ATF showed up to the house if the occupants aren't registered firearm owners AND the doctor reports it to the gov't.

A) None of their business B) Simply ask, "Do.you still beat your wife?" or, "Are you gay?" C) No need for any record of purchase. Even here in California East

No, they aren’t. That would never happen with our government.
