You can sometimes tell the age of something based on the amount of entropy in the system. Time moves in the direction of increasing entropy (greater disorder).

Time exists for US. It is the only way for our limited true understanding of "infinity" to make sense out of the huge distances. The only place, to my knowledge, where time no longer exists would be in a black hole.
We use time in terms of light years to understand the distances between galaxies or across various nebulae. In those instances, miles or kilometers are meaningless because the number would be 10 to the umpteenth power.

Does the so-called Space-Time Continuum preclude the existence or reality of Time?

Time has existed since time began, currently estimated to be about 13.7 billion (earth) years ago. Our universe is four-dimensional, the three which we all know, the x, y, and z axes of three dimensions, and the fourth being time, creating what is referred to by cosmologists, thanks to professor Einstein, as "spacetime."

Just explain it without using a time line.

Um... who says time doesn't exist? It sure seems to exist right now...
