How to prove that given quotation is not a distribution function

I have function
$F(x,y)=begin{cases} 1, text{ if } x+y geq 0, \ 0, text{ if } x+y<0 end{cases}$.
I have no idea how can I prove that given quotation is not a distribution function. Only one think I know is $Delta_sF geq 0$.

$F(1,1)-F(1,-1)-F(-1,1)+F(-1,-1)=-1 <0$ so $F$ is not a distribution function. [In terms of random variable this means $P{-1<Xleq 1,-1<Yleq 1} <0$!].

One more quostion. Why we take $-1$ instead $0$?

I know that you used $Delta_s G= G(x_2,y_2)-G(x_1,y_2)-G(x_2,y_1)+G(x_1,y_1)$ From where I have to know how much $x_1,x_2,y_1,y_2$ is?

@Atstovas If you take $0$ instead of $1$ you won't get a contradiction.

so how to determine $x_1, x_2, y_1, y_2$ from given function $F(x,y)$?

No thumb rule. You have to just play around with the function.
