What notes are in B♭5?

B♭5, B♭ power chord, is B♭ and F: the root (B♭) and the perfect fifth (F). Its formula is 1 5.

Is B♭5 major or minor?

Neither. B♭5 is B♭ and F, with no third, which is why it works under major and minor songs alike and stays clear with distortion.

Can I play B♭5 instead of B♭ or B♭m?

In rock, yes: power chords stand in for both.
