You have the disk so only you can provide the full path to the file– mmmmmmCommented Feb 5, 2016 at 18:53

You're probably fine, but it depends and since it's taking up no space, no good reason to delete it yet. It's simply a database file put there by something (again, probably not OS X.) You should attempt to narrow down what application is using the file (see this post) and then either keep it or delete it as appropriate.
