Give a straight and honest answer as “ Sorry, I do not lend/borrow money to/from anyone. So, kindly excuse for the helplessness.”

People generally like flattery and hate criticism. That too, if one speaks the truth about anything or a person right in front of others, most people get infuriated and agitated.
Because, such people feel their pride insulted when their mistakes or deficiencies are pointed out by others. In other words, they are intolerant, and never mind their mistakes to correct them. Instead, They possess false ego and develop hatred towards those revealing their shortcomings, and wait for opportunities to criticise the other person.
Unless an individual realises the fault on their side, and make efforts to avoid recurrence of such incidents or mistakes, That person is bound to gain less progress in life.
I have listed a few things that I consider most important.
Ask the person as to the purpose of seeking money. If it is for food or clothes or medicine, try to buy such items by yourself and give to them( if you can afford).
If the purpose is to meet daily needs, better guide him to either find some works to earn with own efforts or approach a social service organisation who will have permanent solution to such poor people.
Never ever help a person with money as it becomes a habit involving laziness and carelessness.
