So, the slope between points is average velocity. The greater the slope, the faster the particle moving. If slope is positive, particle moves towards positive axis, and reverse direction for negative slope. If slope is zero, particle is at rest position.

So, the slope between velocities is average acceleration. The greater the slope, the greater the acceleration of the moving particle. If slope is positive, particle is accelerating, and decelerating for negative slope . If slope is zero, particle moves with constant velocity.
