Solution

The correct option is A Positive
The acceleration is positive when it is in the direction of velocity and negative when it is opposite to the direction of velocity. If an object travels in a straight line and its velocity increases or decreases by equal amounts in equal intervals of time then the acceleration of the object is said to be uniform.
