Solution

The correct option is B Straight line
If a particle is moving with constant speed, then the distance-time graph will be a straight line. It is straight because, equal distance is covered in equal time interval. So, the ratio of distance travelled to the time interval is always constant for any interval. Therefore the slope will remain constant throughout the time interval.
