The main results of the paper is as follows: Let \(F\) be a field with at least \(k+2\) elements. Given an \(n\times n\) matrix over \(F\), then \(\text{rank} A\leq k\) iff for every \(B\in\text{GL} (n,F)\) and every distinct nonzero skalars \(\alpha_1, \dots, \alpha_{k+1}\) at least one of the matrices \(B+\alpha_1 A,\dots, B+ \alpha_{k+1} A\) is invertible. This extends results due to \textit{H. Deguang}, \textit{B. V. Limaya} [Linear Algebra Appl. 143, 1-6 (1991; Zbl 0818.15002)], \textit{A. A. Jafarian}, \textit{A. R. Sourour} [J. Funct. Analysis 66, 255-261 (1986; Zbl 0589.47003) and \textit{B. V. Limaye} [Linear Algebra Appl. 143, 57-66 (1991; Zbl 0721.47026)]. In addition, a similar characterization of nilpotent matrices with rank one is given.
