Only if you know your location (the coordinate on the distance scale and the time scale) where "you" are can you infer if the object is moving towards you (the absolute distance to the object is decreasing) or away from you (the distance is increasing).
It indicates that the object in question is not moving in towards or away from the origin. However, it gives no information about motion in the transverse direction.
It means that the object is moving at a high speed in a direction towards or away from the reference point.
The steepness of the line on a distance-time graph represents the radial speed of the object. That is, the speed with which the object is moving towards or away from the origin. The steepness takes absolutely no account of the transverse speed, so you can be going around the origin in a circle at a great speed but, since your distance remains the same, the D-T graph will be flat: implying speed = 0.
It would be a horizontal line, with a y-coordinate at the starting distance.
It means that the object in question is moving at a constant speed.If the graph is a straight horizontal line, then the speed is zero.
The distance time graph for a faster moving object has a smaller slope than the graph for a slower moving object - This is False
The distance time graph for a faster moving object has a smaller slope than the graph for a slower moving object - This is False

False
No, just the opposite
The slope of the line of a distance versus time graph is the velocity of the object. If this is a constant, in other words the graph is a straight line, the object is not changing its velocity and so is not accelerating. If the object is accelerating, the velocity of the object will be changing, thus the graph will not be a straight line, but a curve - the amount of curvature (and direction) tells you how much the object is accelerating (and in what direction - velocity and acceleration are vector quantities with both magnitude and direction).
If the distance is not changing, the object is not moving. If the distance is increasing or decreasing linearly then the object is moving at a constant velocity. If the distance is increasing or decreasing parabolically then the object is being accelerated or decellerated.
yes, if the speed is negative, that is, moving backward
Object will change distance time graph when speed is changing. Distance time graph don't changed indicate of the stationary.
the object is not moving
It indicates that the object in question is not moving in towards or away from the origin. However, it gives no information about motion in the transverse direction.
It means there is no movement towards or away from the point from which distances are measured - usually the origin. The object can be moving in a transverse direction at any speed and the graph would not show it.
