A. The speed is constant.
The fact that the graph forms a straight line indicates that the object is traveling at a constant speed. This means that the distance traveled by the object increases linearly with time. If the speed was changing - either gradually increasing or decreasing - the graph would not be a straight line.
Review the graph below, which plots total distance traveled versus time of travel for a moving object.
