If a line, or the slope of a line, has the property of 'steepness', what is the term for the corresponding property of curves and derivatives? 'Intensity' seems close but wrong.

For example, how would I describe, in language, the difference between the yellow curve and the red? I could say one is 'flatter' than the other, but that seems to include other properties than what I want.
