Yes, the battery may be defective is you cannot jump start the car. The battery may also be so low as to need to be charged some before you attempt to start the car. Put a charger on the battery and see if it will accept a charge.

How to start a 2000 Toyota Solara after the battery has gone down?

Jump start it from another vehicle or charge the battery. If the battery is bad, replace it.
