downward as they proceed from left to right across a graph
Botttom left to top right.
Generally, the direction would be... down.
The slope of parallel lines are the same, but the slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other.
That one there!
larger slope if positive and a smaller slope if negative

No because one line would be going in one direction and the other line would be going in the other direction. Which would make one slope negative and the other slope positive.

Is always negative. (should be in all caps for emphasis)
The speed. Also, if a positive slope represents the speed in one direction, the negative slope is the speed in the opposite direction.
The line has a negative slope (or negative gradient).When the angle between the line and the positive direction of Ox is obtuse then the slope is negative. Conversely, when the angle is acute, the slope is positive.
No, parallel lines have exactly same slope Perpendicular line have a slope that is negative reciprocal of each other that is if m = slope of line then slope of perpendicular line is -1/m
A positive slope is simply a slope going upward on a graph from left to right. A negative slope is a slope going downward from left to right. Often, negative slopes are the reverse of positive slopes and are both depending on the person's direction.
one slope is the negative reciprocal of the other
