As commented above, in their present form, both are ungrammatical. Although, if they are an abridged form of the full sentences,No, there was no apple that was purplewould be correct. Downvoting this question because it lacks research and perhaps better belongs to ELL.

Neither one is correct. You could say, "No, there was none." You could also say, "No, there wasn't any." You could say, "No, there was no..." so long as something followed "no" (e.g., "No, there was no one there.")(e.g., "No, there was no food left.").
