The ball is moving backward continuously, so it's a continuous backward motion.
I've been told previously that the motion of the ball doesn't have to be in a straight line to be continuous. For instance, there's a promo video by the Green Bay Packers in which the snapper moves the ball backwards between his legs in his hand, then passes it far out to a flanker on the side after the snapper's hand w the ball in it is clear of the snapper's butt. The motion of the snap is a bent one, but it never stops moving backwards.
