No. A velocity indicates a speed and direction. An acceleration is a change in speed or direction.
Yes, an object can have zero velocity and still be accelerating if its speed is changing in a direction other than its initial motion. For example, if an object is moving in a circle at a constant speed, its velocity may be zero at a certain point, but it is still accelerating due to the change in its direction.
Yes, a particle can have a velocity of zero and still be accelerating if its speed is changing. Acceleration is the rate at which the velocity of an object changes over time, so even if the particle's velocity is momentarily zero, if it is changing, it is experiencing acceleration.
Yes, a body can have zero velocity and still have acceleration. For example, when a car is at a complete stop but then accelerates to start moving, it has zero velocity at the moment before acceleration kicks in. Another example is when an object reaches the peak of its motion and momentarily stops before accelerating back downwards due to gravity.
Velocity is directional, so if something is accelerating in the opposite direction from the one it is moving it, there will come a point where it has 0 velocity but still has accelerating. If you throw a ball at the ground and it bounces, for example.
Zero acceleration means no change in velocity and no force on the zero accelerating body.

Yes. You are holding your hand out. A tennis ball is floating just above it. The velocity of your body relative to the ball is zero. Why is the ball floating? Because you and the ball and the whole elevator are accelerating down to the ground. ---- Here's a proof by reductio ad absurdum that it's possible: If it were not possible for a body to have zero velocity and be accelerating, once anything stopped moving it could never move again.

When an object is not accelerating at all. It has constant velocity.
Yes, it is possible. When a body thrown upward (from the surface of Earth or any other planet but with velocity small enough not to overcome the gravity) and reaches its maximum elevation its velocity is zero but the acceleration is g (due to gravity).
When an object moves with uniform velocity, its slope is zero. This means the object is not accelerating and is moving at a constant speed in a straight line.
No. The definition of acceleration is the change in an object's velocity over time. Acceleration must then be zero since velocity remains constant.
Not necessarily. If the net force acting on a body is zero, the body's velocity will remain constant (assuming no other forces act on it to change its velocity), but it doesn't mean the velocity will be zero. If the initial velocity is zero, then the velocity will remain zero if the net force is zero.
Yes, an object with zero velocity can have an acceleration that is greater than zero if there is a change in its velocity over time. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so even if the object starts with zero velocity, it can still accelerate if its velocity increases or decreases.
