This probably won't be the case for a question as basic as, "what is regression?" But for any intermediate to advanced interview question involving regression, I would expect companies to jealously guard it.
If you're earnestly interested in building and testing your knowledge, I would recommend you read The Elements of Statistical Learning and Data Analysis Using Regression and Multilevel/Hierarchical Models. Also a good upper undergrad textbook in probability, like A First Course in Probability.
