The Free-Soil Party would have supported the Wilmot Proviso. The party was primarily focused on opposing the expansion of slavery into the western territories of the United States, and the Wilmot Proviso was an unsuccessful proposal to ban slavery in any territory acquired from Mexico. The other options (slave codes, Fugitive Slave Act, and cottonocracy) are related to the support or perpetuation of slavery, which the Free-Soil Party opposed.
