Plenty else it could be, and the one thing it won't be is the fuel pump relay!
There's not supposed to be power to the fuel pump when the ignition is turned on - only when the crankshaft is turning.
Although you don't say, I presume your car won't start. Check that there is power to the fuel pump when the engine is turning. If not, check fuse 11, and if that's OK, check that you have sparks at a plug.
