In the ideal case of zero resistance, a ball rolling on a level surface will accelerate

That is false.

False.
It will not accelerate because the extra kinetic energy has to come from somewhere. On a level surface, the gravitational potential energy does not change.
However, it will not decelerate, because no energy is dissipated, apart from air resistance, which I assume is neglected.
