In a velocity-time graph it will be the time axis (where velocity = 0).
On a distance-time graph it will be a line parallel to the time axis: distance = some constant (which may be 0).

What is the condition of the position-time graph when the velocity-time graph passes through zero?
As, in the velocity-time graph, curves passes through zero means 'when time is zero velocity is zero'. Velocity is time derivative of displacement. So displacement is maximum or minimum when time is zero in position-time graph.
How does a slope of zero look like on a graph?
a horizontal line
What is represented by an x intercept on a velocity time graph?
If time is the x-axis as expected then the x-intercept would be zero movement of the velocity.
Can constant velocity be zero?
Yes. Zero velocity is a velocity; if it is always zero then it is a constant velocity.
How does a line with a zero axis look on a graph?
It is not possible to answer the questions since there is no such thing as a zero axis.

Can you have a zero acceleration but non zero velocity explain it with help of a graph?
Yes, you can. Zero acceleration simply means there is no CHANGE in velocity. It doesn't mean there is no velocity.
Will the graph of instantaneous velocity versus time have a Y-axis intercept of zero?
If you started at zero velocity, yes.
What does the graph of accelaration vs.time look like for something going a constant velocity?
Constant velocity implies zero acceleration, so you would have a horizontal line, identical to the x-axis.
What is the slope of constant velocity?
The Slope (which represents acceleration) of a constant velocity graph is Zero.
How does a slope of zero look like on a graph?
a horizontal line
How Can you tell from a velocity-time graph that the velocity is constant?
velocity is nothing but speed of a body in the given direction. suppose if body is moving with constant velocity then VT graph will be parallel to the X -axis, if not then the VT graph is not parallel to the X-axis it means then object is moving with different velocity or it has its dierection or both velocity and aswell as direction.
How do you know there is no motion on a distance time-graph?
distance = velocity x time so on the graph velocity is slope. If slope is zero (horizontal line) there is no motion
What type of motion is occurring when the slope of a velocity vs. time graph is zero?
It means that the velocity is constant, or not changing.
How do you figure out the starting point of a distance vs time graph when given the velocity vs time graph and a function?
it starts from zero.....
How do you determine acceleration from a position vs. time graph?
if the acceleration is constant, then it is a parabola (a=V*t+(at^2)/2). if it isn't, and you are give it's formula in relation to time, then it is possible to find the distance formula by using higher level mathematics(integrals).
What is the slope in the distance time graph when the body is at rest?
the slope of distance time graph gives us velocity but when the body is at rest it will be zero
