If a breeze block internal wall sits on floorboards, is that a sign that it is non load-bearing?
No-one replying!
Okay, this is not a load-bearing wall, because it's clear it's been built up from the bottom to the ceiling above. And plasterboard is resting on it.
That's my 2 cents.

Have you actually looked in whatever is above to see if there is anything resting on the wall?
Without actually seeing the job "in the flesh" no one on here will be able to give you a definate answer. However, for what it is worth, I would think that your truss is what was known as a TDA truss and as such would span the plates and support the purlin and the ceiling beam. I have no idea what your right hand sketch is, I would suspect that it is a DIY bodge to hang something on, it certainly will not support anything structual. To be certain that you can remove the wall you need advice from a structural engineer or an experienced builder.
