Solution

The correct option is A that the body is moving away from the reference point
Slope of a displacement-time graph with time axis measures velocity.
Positive slope indicates positive velocity.
Displacement and velocity being measured from any reference point in an outward direction, it shows that the body is moving away from the reference point.
