Solution

The correct option is B $\frac{- 1}{2}, - 1, \frac{- 3}{2}$
Since the distance between point $A$ and $E$ is divided into $4$ equal parts.So each part measures $\frac{1}{2}$ .
So, B has the rational number $- \frac{1}{2}$ ,
C has the rational number $- 1$ ,
D has the rational number $- \frac{3}{2}$ .
