If there is no net force, the object will stay at rest if it was at rest, or continue moving - at constant velocity - if it was already moving.
Brief form of discussion: Definitely!Verbose form:Net force is required to change speed or direction of an object's motion.No net force is required to keep it moving in a straight line at a constantspeed.

The object continues to accelerate as long as the force stays constant.
If the object is moving in a straight line, then the net force on it is zero. If the object is not moving in a straight path, then there is some non-zero net force acting on it even if its speed is constant. We don't have enough information to describe the magnitude or direction of the force.
... continue to do that, until a force is exerted on it.

Yes. If no force acts on an object, it will continue moving indefinitely.
Newton's First Law doesn't state that an object remains at rest. That's only one option.

Yes. The object will simply continue moving at a constant velocity, i.e. at a constant speed in a straight line. This is Newton's First Law.

The condition for an object to stay at rest or if moving, moving at a constant velocity is that the sum of forces acting on the object be zero or that no force acts on the object.

When balanced forces are applied to a moving object, the object likely slow and eventually stop. How quickly that occurs depends on the amount of force.
