I struggled to answer that correctly. In the end I had to go with this. The external fuel tank supplied fuel to the engines on the orbiter vehicle, not to the solid fuel boosters. I have never heard of the orbiter being referred to as a rocket even though it had rocket engines. Frankly I thought the color would give it away much sooner.
