Negative slope on a speed/time graph indicates decreasing speed.
(Some call it "deceleration", although I wish they wouldn't.)
Yes, a position-time graph can have a negative slope. This would indicate that the object is moving in the negative direction with respect to the chosen reference point.
No, a negative slope on a velocity vs time graph indicates that the object is moving in the negative direction. If the slope is constant, it means the object is moving at a constant speed in the negative direction.
On a speed vs. time graph, acceleration is represented by a non-zero slope. If the slope of the graph is increasing, it indicates positive acceleration (speeding up). If the slope is decreasing, it indicates negative acceleration (slowing down).
The slope of a velocity vs. time graph represents acceleration. A positive slope indicates acceleration in the positive direction, a negative slope indicates acceleration in the negative direction, and a horizontal line indicates constant velocity.
False. It means it is slowing Down!

slope of the graph ... actually the absolute value of the slope, actual slope, positive or negative, would indicate direction, so the slope would be velocity.
A changing slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object's acceleration is changing. If the slope is increasing, the acceleration is positive, and if the slope is decreasing, the acceleration is negative. A flat slope indicates constant velocity.
A straight line graph with negative slope slants downward from left to right.
A negative slope. a decrease, a fall, etc.
On a speed vs. time graph, acceleration is represented by a non-zero slope. If the slope of the graph is increasing, it indicates positive acceleration (speeding up). If the slope is decreasing, it indicates negative acceleration (slowing down).
The slope of a force vs. time graph is equal to the change in momentum or the Impulse.
magnitude of velocity
The slope of a velocity vs. time graph represents acceleration. A positive slope indicates acceleration in the positive direction, a negative slope indicates acceleration in the negative direction, and a horizontal line indicates constant velocity.
The slope of the speed/time graph is the magnitude (size) of the object's acceleration.
A change in the slope of a location-time graph of an object indicates a change in the radial component of its speed.
