Check the backshift of tenses, the word order in reported questions, the form of commands and the time words. 'Anna said that she was cooking dinner then': Present Continuous becomes Past Continuous and 'now' becomes 'then', so this is correct. 'Mum asked me if I had called the doctor': a yes/no question uses 'if' with statement word order, and Past Simple becomes Past Perfect, so this is correct. 'He asked her where was she going' is wrong because a reported question keeps statement word order: 'where she was going'. 'The teacher told us don't be late' is wrong because a negative command needs 'not to + infinitive': 'not to be late'. 'Kate said that she saw that film yesterday' is wrong because Past Simple should become Past Perfect and 'yesterday' should become 'the day before'. 'Mr Brown told Ben that he had to finish the task that day': 'must' becomes 'had to' and 'today' becomes 'that day', so this is correct.
