No. It shows zero speed. Velocity is distance/unit time. The slope of the line shows change in distance / change in time. Since distance never changes as time changes, the change in distance is zero. Alternatively, the slope of a horizontal line is zero. If zero speed is considered "constant", then yes, it does show constant speed but the speed is zero.
