Yes.

If you compare the effect water pressure has on flow rates and from an open tap, more pressure allows more water to flow out of and away from the source.

In electrical circuitry, an increase in voltage - say from a battery - will in most cases

enable a larger current to flow around the circuit that the battery is connected to.

Voltage can be seen as the pressure force pushing another quantity around the loop and that quantity is electrical current .

Electrical pressure and the quantity of electricity transmitted can be considered analogous to water flowing in pipes.

Electrical pressure is called voltage: the longer the distances, the higher is the pressure (voltage) required to pump the current.

That is why, for long distance transmission, high pressure (voltage here) is required, failing which, the power will not reach the destined end. It will dissipate on the way.

We can think of electrical current as the quantity of electricity which will be drawn from the pipeline (= cables for electricity) at the pressure (= voltage) required.

What is the relationship between static electricity and voltage?

Static electricity is a buildup of electric charge on an object, while voltage is the measure of electric potential difference between two points. The relationship between static electricity and voltage is that static electricity can create a voltage difference when there is a buildup of charge, leading to the potential for electrical discharge or sparks.
