Find the slope of the tangent to the graph at the point of interest.
The answer depends on the rate of change of WHAT? The rate of change of the gas used? the rate of change of the gas left, the rate of change of the range that the vehicle will go? The question is too vague.
You can determine if a rate of change is constant, by taking the instantaneous rate of change at multiple points - if they are all equal to each other, it can be assumed that the rate of change is constant. Alternatively, you can differentiate the function (if there is an associated function) - if this comes to a constant i.e. a number, then the rate of change is constant.
Slope can be referred to by rate of change because it is the rate that x changes compared to y on a graph.
When something has a constant rate of change it means that it has a linear graph. The function can be written in the slope intercept form of y = mx + b.
The slope of a graph.
A low rate of change.
differentiate with respect to time.
formula to figure out the rate of change of a line on a graph m= y2-y1/x2-x1
Slopes give you the rate of change. On a distance vs. time graph the rate of change (i.e. the slope) is the velocity. On a Velovity vs. Time graph the rate of change is the acceleration. etc.
The slope of each point on the line on the graph is the rate of change at that point. If the graph is a straight line, then its slope is constant. If the graph is a curved line, then its slope changes.

Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.
the rate of change on the line.
If the graph is a non-vertical straight line, then the rate of change is constant. If the line is curved, then the rate of change (slope) varies.
Differentiate the graph with respect to time.
