The closer the layer is at the Earth's core, the warmer it gets.
Radioactive decay!
Temperature and pressure increase massively from the Earth's surface to the centre of the Earth. At the inner core, the pressure is so great that iron is solid, even at such high temperatures.
It is called the geothermal gradient, which means that the closer to the mantel or core (underground) you go, the hotter it gets.
Estimates put the temperature of the inner core of the earth at: 9800.6 ºF, 5427 ºC.

No. It gets hotter.
It increases. The closer you get to the Earth's core - the higher the pressure (and temperature).

The temperature in the Earth's mantle can be anywhere from 500 to 900 degrees Celsius. Closer to the core of the Earth, the temperature can reach 4,000 degrees Celsius.
In general, the temperature decreases towards the surface.
the grvitational pull of the earth becomes stronger as you cet closer to the core.
Pressure and radioactivity.
Temperature and pressure increase massively from the Earth's surface to the centre of the Earth. At the inner core, the pressure is so great that iron is solid, even at such high temperatures.
When the material gets closer to the core it gets hotter and more dense.
