Time is on the x- axis in most cases. give the people more information if you need a specific type of graph.
it is called a motion graph
You could try a speed-time graph, or 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
For uniform motion, the position-time graph will be a straight line with a constant slope, indicating a constant velocity.
A distance time graph would show the distance traveled.
the distance time graph will show a linear or a straight line
From a velocity-time graph, you can calculate the acceleration by finding the slope of the graph at a certain point. The area under the graph represents the displacement of the object. You can also determine the direction of motion based on the slope of the graph (positive slope indicates motion in one direction, negative slope indicates motion in the opposite direction).
To find the direction of motion from a distance x axis and time y axis graph, look at the slope of the graph. A positive slope indicates motion in the positive direction, while a negative slope indicates motion in the negative direction. A horizontal line indicates stationary motion.

The slope of a position/time graph is the speed (magnitude of velocity).If the graph's slope is changing, that means the speed is changing, andthat would be accelerated motion.
Position-Time GraphYou can graph motion on a position vs time graph. On a position vs time graph, position is on the y-axis and time is on the x-axis. If the velocity is constant, the graph will be a straight line and the slope is average velocity. If the motion is accelerating, the graph will be a curved line.Velocity-Time GraphYou can also graph motion on a Velocity-Time graph. On a velocity vs time graph, velocity is on the y-axis, time is on the x-axis. If the graph is a straight line, velocity is constant and the slope is average acceleration. Also, on a velocity vs time graph, the area under the line is displacement.Refer to the related link for illustrations of the different graphs of motion and their meanings.
-- The distance/time graph for an object in uniform motion is a straight line,which may be sloped.-- The distance/time graph for an object in non-uniform motion may be a linethat isn't straight. But even if the graph is a straight line, that's not enoughto guarantee that the object's motion is uniform ... the distance/time graphreveals the object's speed, but not the direction of its motion.
