Apr 22, 2014 at 17:30 comment added YCor This does not answer your question, but at least this holds in characteristic large enough, say $p\ge p_n$. Indeed if it fails for some given $n$, the existence for large $p_i$ of a solvable Lie algebra in dimension $n$ with no invariant line yields a solvable Lie algebra in dimension $n$ with no invariant line on the ultraproduct of the fields. But this provides no explicit bound about $p_n$ and the one you suggest looks plausible.
