Higher mortgage interest rates inherently reduces the public demand for mortgages since price level has an inverse relationship with demand. Ceteris paribus (all other things remaining equal) the interest rate will return to the rate at which the both the price level and quantity of mortgages taken will achieve maximum values.

Interest rates can be thought of as the cost of money. Therefore assuming a fixed amount of money in the economy, if the price level increases, real income decreases and consequently money may have to be borrowed in order to maintain real income. But because there's a fixed amount of money in the economy there will be more demand for money than there'd be supply of. In essence, the increase in the price level, increases the demand of money and also the price of money which, coincidently, is the interest rate.
The correlation between the price of gold and interest rates can be a bit complicated. If there is a higher yield of gold in a year, the interest rates and price tend to lessen; the more gold there is, the easier it is to acquire. If other investments offer increasing returns, gold prices and rates will tend to lower.
Anytime the demand for capital increases, interest rates go up. Supply and demand. The price of money is measured in interest rates.
The price is inversely related to yields (interest rates). This means as rates rise, prices fall.
