Answer:
a body continues its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line provided no net force acts on it.
it says that if no net force acts on a body the body will continue its initial state
for example a chair lying in a room will remain stationary as long as no net force acts on it this is the first part .In second part it says that a body will continue its motion as long as no net force acts on it however this cannot be assumed on earth because if a body starts moving it will come to rest after sometime because of friction and air resistance. T his is only possible in space where there are no resistive forces that can stop the body.
i hope this will be helpful for you.
