Guitar can use either amp. But won't sound as "good" on bass amp.
For beginners I would say get the cheapest bass amp or a pedal that outputs to headphones ($50 target for either amp or pedal).
Edit: you can play bass on a guitar amp … before someone tries to argue I don't want to argue. But the chances of damaging the speaker are significant. It won't explode or catch on fire.

Bass cabs tend to have much larger cab volumes to move more air required for low notes. Bass cabs also tend to be ported to produce louder volumes at whatever tuning the port is. With that said, I've played bass through big 1x12" and 4×12" guitar cabs. You lose a ton of low end response, and you actually have to turn down the bass knob to keep the sound within the capabilities of the guitar cab speaker, but it is possible.
So, it's highly recommended to just shell out $200 on a used bass combo, but if you have a big metal guitar cabinet, you could make due for a while.
