Not exactly.
'Motion' or 'change of motion' are not force. But the only way to change an
object's motion is to cause the group of forces on it to be unbalanced.
If the object's motion is changing, then you can be sure that the group of
forces acting on it is unbalanced.

Why does object in motion stay in motion?
An object in motion stays in motion because it requires a force to change the motion. No force, no change.
Is motion a force?
No, motion is not a force. Motion is a change of coordinates. However, motion usually is a result of applying a force.
Does a force always change an objects motion?
it usually does, but if the force is balanced, it will not change the object's motion
What can change the state of rest or motion of an objec?
Force, can change the state of motion through acceleration a=Force/m.
What does it take to change an objects state of motion?
it takes an unbalanced force to change an object's state of motion
A force is needed to change the motion of an object?
Yes, an unbalanced force is needed to change the motion of an object.If an unbalanced force does not act on an object it will continue to maintain its state of motion (either in motion or at rest), not considering the effect of frictional force. This is basically Newtons first law of motion.
What is the usual name of force which can't produce motion but only change in motion?
Frictional Force. It is a 'reactive' force, and can only respond when another Force is applied. It can SLOW a motion, or cause a change in Direction.
How is force related motion?
Force is the one and only means of bringing about a change in motion.
What force can cause a change in motion?
unbalanced force
What is the property of a body that requires force to change its state of motion?
property of a body that requires force to change its state of motion
Is it true that an unbalanced force will not change and objects motion?
yes every unbalanced force can change or "try to change (can be or cannot be)" the state of rest or motion
What must be applied to an object to change its direction?
Forces cause motion or the change in motion.
