Graphs of Acceleration: AS Student Physics Question

[Nubcake]

Hi

I'm an AS student studying physics and to everyone else this question may be very easy but I'm unsure about this graph and how to describe it

I think it's increasing acceleration but in a different direction , is that right?

As time increases, the slope--and thus the acceleration--gets steeper and more negative. So yes, the magnitude of the acceleration increases and acts to slow the object down more quickly.
