The direct translation would be:
To remain/stay quiet and to move on to something else.

Correct. To speak about the context that would be said to describe someone who didn't want to answer and moved on to another topic, probably after an embarrassing question. That would be my guess. If that's the case, the translation could be, "He/She remained quiet/did not respond and moved on to another topic."

Se taire => Be quiet or to shut up
Passer à autre chose => Moving on or Moving to something else.
Hope that helps
