How will a B in one semester affect admissions?

I’m a sophomore and just finished my ap world history class. The first semester I got a solid 93, but in the second semester I got an 89.7 (0.3 points away from an A, so disappointing).

Questions:
If you get a B in one semester and an A in the other and the average of the two is still an A, can you still say you’re a straight A student?

How will this look to colleges?
