Answer: Changing velocity

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition acceleration is the variation of velocity
Vin time. If we do an inverse operation, we will find velocity is the integral of acceleration
a:


V= \int\limits^t_0 {a} \, dt (1)

Solving and taking into account acceleration is constant:


V= at + V_(o) (2)

Being
V_(o) the initial velocity which was the resultant constant from the integration.

From (2) we can see the equation is similar to the equation of the line
y=mx+b, where
a in this case is the slope. This means there is a linear variation in velocity when acceleration is constant.
