Its not considered as 100% true......Conclusion I makes contradiction with conclusion II, so one the these true has to be true.....Thats why either I or II is kept as an answer..

Note: Always remember, Some+No=either or (Provided there should be no relation given in the statement between two elements)

Hence,

I. Some cots are hammers.
II. No cot is hammer.

either I or II is true
