Ok, assuming you are referring to a Bb Trumpet:

The B MAJOR scale is as follows:

B - C♯ - D♯ - E - F♯ - G♯ - A♯ - B

To get that to a minor scale, you lower the 3rd, 6th, and 7th scale degrees:

B - C♯ - D - E - F♯ - G - A - B

Because you mentioned the trumpet transposition I'll put that in here too.

Because you have a Bb trumpet, you need to transpose. The easiest way to transpose is to use a "circle of fifths" or "circle of fourths" its the same thing. It just depends on which way you go around.

So using the circle of fifths you would need to play the Db/C♯ Scale. (they are enharmonic and are the same)

Which is:

Db - Eb - F - Gb - Ab - Bb - C - Db

Minor:

Db - Eb - Fb (E) - Gb - Ab - B - Cb (B) - Db

The reason why I'm writing Fb instead of E is because of the theory of writing scales in that there can only be one of each note in a scale (excluding the root)

Just for kicks, heres the C♯ scale

C♯ - D♯ - E# - F# - G♯ - A♯ - B# - C♯

Minor:

C♯ - D♯ - E - F♯ - G♯ - A - B - C♯
