Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope of velocity -time graph gives the acceleration. Acceleration of an object is defined as the rate of change of velocity i.e.

the acceleration is negative in this case i.e. the object is decelerating.

A negative slope on the velocity versus time graph indicates that an object is not accelerating.

Hope this helped!
