Perhaps you mean the solubility of substances in water. Most solids have increasing solubility in water with increase in temperature, but certainly not all of them. Some solids e.g. Cerium Sulphate have decreased solubility in water at higher temperatures, while some solids show increasing solubility up to a certain temperature, above which the solubility decreases, such as Sodium Sulphate. The solubility of common salt, Sodium Chloride, is almost unaffected by temperature. Gases generally have lower solubility in water at higher temperatures.

It depends on what substance you are talking about, if it is a solid you are dissolving, than rising the temperature will increase the rate of dissolving. if it is a gas you are dissolving, than no lowering the temperature will increase the rate.

The solubility of most but not all salts increases with increasing temperature of the solution. If the dissolution of the solute is strongly exothermic, as with calcium oxide, the solubility decreases with temperature. Sodium chloride's solubility is little changed with temperature. If the dissolution of a salt is endothermic, the solubility of that salt will increase with temperature, and the dissolution of most salts is at least mildly endothermic.

No. There are a few compounds, such as cerium sulfate, for which the solubility goes down as temperature increases.

Solubility limits definitely increase with temperature if talking about molten metals. There are phase diagrams for most materials that provide solubility limits at various temps.

What happens to the solubility of a solid in water as the temperature increases?

Although the solubility of most substances increases with temperature (eg you can dissolve more sugar in water when it is hot than you can in the same amount of water when it is cold) with gases the solubility decreases with temperature, so that cold water will hold more gas than the same amount of hot water. As oxygen is a gas its solubility decreases as the water temperature increases.
