Velocity is a vector quantity. So it must have a direction. In question, direction is not specified so it must be scalar quantity. Speed is a scalar quantity.

The rate of change of displacement of a body with respect to its surrounding- speed.

The rate of change of displacement of a body with respect to its time - velocity.

The rate of change of velocity of a body with respect to its time - acceleration.
