user32394: Came across a puzzle that stopped at this point. How can black win from this position? White to move.

user15223: This is a standard Queen vs. Pawn endgame. The queen usually, but not always, wins. The standard idea is to check the enemy king repeatedly until it is forced to move in front of the pawn. This gives you a free move , which lets you advance your own king. If the opponent allows it, moving the queen in front of the pawn (...Qb8 in the diagram position) also wins.
It turns out that this general plan usually works, but fails if the pawn is a bishop's pawn or rook's pawn. In this case the defender can threaten a stalemate defense (e.g. if the pawn is on c2 and the king is on a1, then Qxc2 stalemates the king). There are exceptions and intricacies, though (see the article linked above).
In your case the pawn is a knight's pawn, so Black wins. If you know the general idea you should be able to find a win even against Stockfish, since it's hard to ruin your position. I would suggest trying it.

user32155: Yes, this position can be won by black. Here's how:
These types of positions show the concept of controlling the million-dollar square. Now, what is that square? In this position, it is b6. Why is it called million-dollar square? It is called the million-dollar square because it's the most important square which decides whether black would win this or draw this position.
[FEN "6k1/8/KP6/8/8/8/8/6q1 w - - 0 1"]

How does Black win?
The basic idea to win these types of positions is to make the White king go in front of the pawn (on the queening square).

After b7, the black queen starts giving checks.
As soon as the white king is in front of the pawn(on the queening square), bring the black king closer to the pawn by one square.
If the white king starts to run then give checks and force it to move in front of the pawn (on the queening square).
Repeat steps 1,2 and 3 till you checkmate or win the pawn.
