Two diagonals will be inclined at 45^{\circ}with the axes.
Parametric equation
\mathrm{\frac{x+1}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}=\frac{y+2}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}=r}

Point \mathrm{(2,-1)(0,-3)}
Parametric equation other diagonal

\mathrm{\frac{x+1}{-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}=\frac{y+2}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}=r}
Hence points are \mathrm{(0,-1),(2,-3)}

Hence (D) is the correct answer.
