Are you of the same opinion?
Let Y be the real line with the topology generated by the usual open sets and the set Q of all rational numbers. Offhand, it seems to me that Y is a Lindelof space which has property b) but is not regular. Let's see.
Is Y Lindelof? Q is Lindelof because it's countable. Y\Q is Lindelof because the subspace topology on Y\Q is just the usual topology of the irrational numbers. Y is Lindelof because it's the union of two Lindelof subspaces, Q and Y\Q.
Does Y have property b)? The real line with the usual topology has property b). If K is a closed neighborhood of p in the real topology, then it is a closed neighborhood of p in the stronger topology of Y. Hence Y has property b).
Is Y regular? No, because Q is a neighborhood of zero which contains no closed neighborhood of zero.
