Default Delete Entry Based on Selection

I currently use data validation in cell A2 that allows the user to
select 1 of 5 options from a drop-down list (Customer, Representative,
Vendor, etc). I have a second validation list (Yes, No) in cell B2 that
should only be used if "Representative" was selected in A2. Both
work like a charm.

My problem occurs when A2 is changed from "Representative" to
something else. Is there a way to automatically delete the Yes or No in
B2 when A2 is changed?

E.g., the user selects "Representative" in A2 and "Yes" in B2.
Later, the user changes A2 to "Customer." I would like to have the
"Yes" (or "No") in B2 deleted automatically. I thought about using
some sort of If/Then formula in B2, but then I lose the option of the
user selecting Yes or No when "Representative" is selected (or
re-selected) in A2. Any suggestions?
