Constant speed. Zero acceleration.
It means that the object in question is moving at a constant speed.If the graph is a straight horizontal line, then the speed is zero.
If the axes are time/distance then, and only then, it means a constant velocityIf not, then this Q doesn't have enough data to A
A line sloping upwards in a distance graph indicates that the object is moving away from the starting point, and the distance from that point is increasing over time. The steeper the slope, the faster the object is moving. If the line is straight, the speed is constant; if it curves, the speed may be changing.
BecAuse that would mean it is going an infinite speed. The slope of a distance time graph is the objects velocity or speed. If there is a line parallel to the distance axis, there is a vertical line. The slope of a vertical line is infinite. It is not possible to go an infinite speed.
A straight line graph (on the cartesian or coordinate plane).
It means that the object in question is moving at a constant speed.If the graph is a straight horizontal line, then the speed is zero.
Look for the key to the symbols on your graph, which will explain the straight line.

When there is a curved line going upwards on a graph it means the distance is increasing
y axis
A straight line graph (on the cartesian or coordinate plane).
Standing still or not moving
With distance on the x axis and time on the y axis a steep line would indicate a short distance traveled over a long period of time, depending on the scale of the graph.
Time is plotted on the X-axis. Speed or velocity is plotted on the Y-axis. A straight horizontal line on a speed-time graph means that speed is constant. It is not changing over time. A straight line does not mean that the object is not moving!
If you mean: y = 3x+7 then it is a straight line equation that can be plotted on the Cartesian plane
