The y-axis is the distance and the x-axis is the time.
The displacements are the points at the end of the lines.
The main difference between speed and velocity is direction.
Speed would be only the distance divided by the time, but you wouldn't know the direction.
So the answer is that
the slope represents the velocity.
Hope this helps!
