(N/A) The graph shows a horizontal line parallel to the time axis,which indicates that the distance of the object does not change with time. Therefore,the object is at rest.
$(b)$ The graph shows a straight line for some time (uniform motion) followed by a horizontal line (rest). Since the speed is not constant throughout the entire duration,this represents non-uniform motion.
