There are fundamental errors in the question.
A particle is three dimentional and cannot exist in a one dimentional universe, nor can velocity.

Can particle have zero speed and non zero velocity?
No.
Can particle with velocity or speed at zero be accelerating?
Yes.
Is it possible in straight line motion particle have 0 speed and a non-zero velocity .explain?
Sounds like a trick question. The answer is no. Speed is a scalar with magnitude only and velocity is a vector with magnitude (speed) and direction. So If traveling with velocity in a straight line it has speed..
Can a particle with constant speed be accelerating what if it has constant velocity?
Velocity is speed together with its direction.Acceleration indicates a change in velocity ... speed or direction or both.Change of direction means acceleration, even if speed is constant.Constant velocity means constant speed and direction ... zero acceleration.
Average velocity of a particle is zero but not its average speed .. is it possible?
Yes - for example, if an object moves in a circle.

Can the average velocity of a particle be zero but not its average speed?
Yes, since velocity is speed and direction its average can be zero. For example say a plane flies from point A to point B at 300 mph and turns around to go from B to A at 300 mph; its average velocity is 0 since it is in the same spot as it started ( the velocity vectors cancel) but its average speed is 300 mph.
Why is the velocity 0 when your speed is constant?
It's not. If you speed is constant (but not zero), then your velocity won't be zero, either.You may be confusing this with the following: If your VELOCITY (not your speed) is constant, then your ACCELERATION is zero. Acceleration refers to how quickly velocity changes, so if velocity doesn't change at all, acceleration is zero.
What does initial velocity means?
initial velocity is the velocity with which a particle starts its journey.
A net external force acts on a particle This net force is not equal to zero is this sufficient information to conclude that the velocity of the particle changes?
Yes. F=ma if f is non zero then a is non zero and the velocity changes if the particle is not constrained, free to move.
What can be said about the speed of a particle if the net work done on it is zero?
In that case, basically no force acts on the particle, and the particle moves at a constant speed. This constant speed may, or may not, be zero.
What is particle velocity at the extreme end of vibration?
Most likely zero.
