Ambiguous nothing, Byron Howard has outright said that part was meant to be platonic, and Ginnifer Goodwin read it as such as well, AND Howard and several others spoiled months in advance that the main characters of this movie don't end up together, so...

Honestly, I think it's very refreshing to see a main male and female Disney character NOT end up together. This could be a much-needed valuable lesson, that yes, a man and woman CAN be just friends. With Jason Bateman having seen the exchange as romantic, it could even be carried over into the characters, with Nick thinking there's something more when Judy is only interested in friendship, and maybe he has to learn to deal with this if we get any follow-up material.
