The contorus of the given function f(x,y)=C{\color{#4257b2}f(x,y)=C} are lines with slope equal to 1-1.

Equation of the line f(x,y)=C{\color{#4257b2}f(x,y)=C} is:

3x+3y=C\boxed{{\color{#4257b2}3x+3y=C}}

This is a equation of a line with itercepts x=C3{\color{#4257b2}x=\dfrac{C}{3}} and y=C3{\color{#4257b2}y=\dfrac{C}{3}}.

As we can see at the pictures above, the function f(x,y){\color{#4257b2}f(x,y)} is increasing function of yy and xx.
