the slope basically tells about the speed or velocity of the body in a distance-time graph.

if the slope is positive , that means the body’s speed is increasing or in other words , the body is accelerating.

if distance- time graph has negative slope , the body is undergoing retardation & its speed is decreasing.

if the slope is constant , it means that their a constant acceleration.

if the slope is 0. or the line is parallel to the x-axis , the body moves with regular speed.
