How about an alternative question: does there exist a polynomial $f\in\mathbb{Q}[x,y]$ with integer values at lattice points, and of degree at least two on each variable, such that for any prime $p$, the map $f:\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{Z}$ composing with $\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{F}_p$ is surjective? Or more specifically, does a degree two such polynomial exist? The last part shouldn't be too hard, but I don't know how to solve it.
