Detailed Solution

Newton's First Law of motion states that a body at rest will remain at rest and body at motion will remain in uniform motion unless an unbalanced force acts on it to change its state of rest or of uniform motion. Hence No force is required by the body to remain in a state of uniform motion is true.
In uniform linear motion direction of velocity remains constant and even magnitude remains constant when both are constant acceleration is zero. When acceleration is zero. Hence acceleration has a finite value is false.

(A) is true but (R) is false
