Detailed Solution

a = dv/dt, if velocity changes, definitely there will be acceleration. If speed changes, then velocity also changes, so definitely there will be acceleration. Acceleration may be due to change in the direction of velocity only and not magnitude. If body has acceleration, its speed may change if acceleration is due to change in the magnitude of velocity.
