On the contrary, you were told, in the other thread (and subsequently confirmed in this one) that:
the thrust line is not the same on different marks of the aircraft
Coming onto a professional forum to ask a technical question and then ignoring the responses seems a rather strange thing to do.
The appearance of a negative angle angle in some photos must be an optical illusion, probably created by the shape of the cowl.
A visit to Specsavers, or the Australian equivalent, might be in order.
