Expert Solution
Step 1

There are two different graphs. First graph is complete and in second graph the y axis is missing. 

Considering the first graph the questions are answered.

1.

First let us understand few point about displacement vs time graph.

The time is indicated along the horizontal direction and displacement is indicated along vertical direction.

A straight line horizontal line in displacement vs time graph denotes no motion of the object.

A straight line with uniform slope represent a uniform velocity of the object. It the slope is positive the velocity is positive and if the slope is negative then the velocity is negative.

A curved line indicates the object is accelerating. If the positive slope of the curve is increasing then the object is having positive acceleration and if the positive slope of the curve is decreasing the object has negative acceleration
