Okay, so if he is waiting at a traffic light, his velocity should=0. Time is still passing, so its a straight line but it sits on top of the x-axis (y=0). When he accelerates, his velocity will raise over time, so that's a positive diagonal line. Now he is cruising at a constant velocity. That's a straight line at some positive value of y. When he decelerates, the line goes downwards (make a negative slope) and it will eventually hit zero, where it will just go along the x-axis again.
