Explanation / Answer

The slope at a point on a position-versus-time graph ofan object is
     c.the object's instantaneous velocity atthat point.
    ( slope is = y component / x component = x/ t = V )
2. The area under a velocity-versus-time graph of an object is
     d.the displacement of the object.
    ( Velocity * time = displacement)
3. Is it possible for an object's instantaneous velocity andinstantaneous acceleration to be of opposite sign at someinstant of time?
   Yes
