Forget modems - to probe via some kind of analog connection, just get a single instrument wireless telephone with answering capability. For a bonus, put some kind of identifier in the answering message: No power > no answer; power > answer.
I must be thick - how does that solve the problem? The OP wants to know if a modem at a remote site will answer the phone. Maybe I misunderstood the problem.
