Yes; it qualifies for the working family credit, but not the child tax credit.   There are two separate tax credits:

 

Child Tax Credit - You must have a qualifying child - the credit is $1,750 per qualifying child.

 

Working Family - The Minnesota Working Family Credit is a refundable credit for working individuals whose income is below a certain level.  You can qualify with zero dependents.  However, if you do not have any dependents and are filing Married Filing Separately, you do NOT qualify.   Single and Married Filing Jointly returns can qualify without dependents.
