With the help of MageVortex this is the DAX that worked:
Color March = IF ( COUNT ( 'KPI' [Actual] ) = BLANK(), "#FFFFFF", IF ( MAX ( 'KPI' [Actual] ) < MAX ( 'KPI' [Plan] ), "#E68F96", "#BBF4C6" ))
You have to use the hex code for the colors, I made the mistake of not entering a hashtag before the color code and it created an error. Thanks for your help MageVortex.

Sorry, I forgot to finish the equation, it should have read more akin to:
IF ( 'KPI' [Mar-Actual] =BLANK(), "000000", IF (blahblahblah
Or perhaps a
0
in place of
BLANK()
That may not help the report I was testing with is my own and set up differently than yours. If you must use min max or sum, you can just try sum = 0 or something like that.
Hope that helps.

I tried COUNT and SUM, they're not working, the error message says there are too many arguments for the funciton.
