More precisely, we need to specify its position relative to a convenient frame of reference. A frame of reference is an arbitrary set of axes from which the position and motion of an object are described.

In the image above, the red line is the position vs time graph and the blue line is an approximated slope for the line at t=2.5 seconds. For constant velocity motion, the slope gives the constant velocity, the average velocity, and the instantaneous velocity at every point.
