Answer:

No, the car is decelerating

Explanation:

No the car is decelerating if it exits a freeway and goes from 65

mph to 35 mph since the change in velocity is negative.

change in velocity = final - initial

change in velocity = 35 - 65

change in velocity = -30mph

Since the change in velocity is negative, hence the car is decelerating. Deceleration is a negative acceleration
