Hello,
There is less chances that you are pregnant as you had your tubal ligation and urine test is just a screening test have high rate of false positive result. I would advise for repeat UPT and USG. There are less chances not zero chances, as there is failure rate also.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
