If an object's velocity and acceleration are in opposite directions, then the acceleration acting in the opposite direction must slow the object down. Eventually, the body momentarily stops before reversing direction, but at this point, only the velocity is zero and the acceleration is still acting on the body. Therefore, the reason is the correct interpretation of the assertion.
