1Hi @Rookies DJ, I've tried to connect raspberry pi model b+ to my macbook and it works. Are you using a macbook? – user1872384 Oct 09 '18 at 07:40

You have to enable ssh on the raspberry pi first! – PowerStat Oct 09 '18 at 07:41

As said in the comments you need to enable SSH on your pi.
If you have a screen you can use to view the desktop, it's pretty easy, enter:
sudo raspi-config (in to a terminal) navigate to interfacing options and you will be able to enable both SSH and VNC.
If you do not have a monitor or any way to view the desktop of your pi, you will have to do it the hard way by copying a file to your pi SD card to enable SSH, here is a link to a tutorial on how it works Enabling SSH on pi without screen
Honestly, though, the first option is the best, easiest and most foolproof.
