" is either: "No, I don't mind."(which is a positive response to the request. It means that I accept to lend you my book) or "Yes." (which is a negative response to the request. It means that I don't want to lend you my book.) 3. Could is more formal than can. Shall, can and will are followed by the verb without to. Example: "Can I help you?"
