The true statement regarding a distance vs. time graph is:

**The graph should show distance on the vertical axis.**

In a distance vs. time graph, distance is typically represented on the y-axis (vertical), while time is represented on the x-axis (horizontal). The other statements are not necessarily true.

- The graph can have both straight line segments and curves depending on the motion.
- The graph does not necessarily need to start at the origin; it can start from a point that represents an initial distance.
- A horizontal segment is not required, although it may be present if the object remains stationary for a period of time.
