My guess. Neither a "reverse parabola", which has a maximum, not "linear", which has none are physically reasonable right. Either you are far from the minimum energy, your structure is unstable or something else is wrong. Ensure that you are at a stable minimum before trying to do the elastic constants.
Just my guess based upon what you said in your email.
