Works perfectly even if you only initialise the variables to 1

EOD

f(x, y) = x*x + b*x*y + c*y*y + d*x + e*y + f
b=c=d=e=f=1
fit f(x, y) $dat u 1:2:(0) via b,c,d,e,f
splot f(x,y), $dat us 1:2:(0)

But your formula still does not describe an ellipse.

f(x,y) = 0 does, which is what you fitted, and your want from the
contour plot.

 set contour both
 set cntrparam levels discrete 0
 set xr[-3:3]; set yr[-3:3]
 splot f(x,y), $dat us 1:2:(0)
