The type of beam is not mentioned.
For simply supported: compression in top, tension in bottom.
For cantilever: tension in top, compression in bottom.
For simply supported: compression in top, tension in bottom.
For cantilever: tension in top, compression in bottom.

For rectangular beam loaded transversly there is compression on top layer & tension on bottom layer.
Then to resist these compression on top side there is develope tensile stress.
