The curved line on a time vs. distance graph represents that the object is accelerating.

instantaneous acceleration* * * * *No it does not.The graph is a distance-time graph so the coordinates of a point on the graph represent the position (distance) at the specified time. The gradient of the tangent to the curve at that point represents the instantaneous radial velocity. The second derivative at that point, if it exists, would represent the acceleration.
The object is accelerating or decelerating in the radial direction.
It tells you that the velocity of the body is not constant. There is acceleration or deceleration.
it is a line on a graph that is curved
