False, air pressure goes down as altitude increases. Air acts like water in the sense that they are both fluids. If you are on the surface of the earth you are in the bottom of the fluid just like water the pressure is higher on the bottom. So when you increase altitude you are reaching the top of the fluid therefore decreasing pressure.

The higher you are the thinner the air. Air density is thinner higher up.

True. Temperature and pressure both increase with increasing depth within the Earth.


The pressure of gas always increases with increasing temperature?

True.The Ideal Gas Law is PV = nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the amount of gas, R is the gas constant, and T is temperature. You can see clearly that, all other things being equal, pressure is directly proportional to temperature.
