Statement 1 : Despite line a being perpendicular to line b, we may have a case (suppose when a and b make 45 degrees angle with the y axis)in which reflection of a is parallel to b and other cases in which reflection of a is not parallel to b.

So, not sufficient.

Statement 2 is not sufficient in itself.

Even if we combine both these statements, we cannot ascertain whether the reflection is for sure parallel to line b.

Hence, option E is the right choice.
