The relationship between volume is inversely proportional. This means that when there are an increase in pressure of molecules that are moving, pushes the molecules closer together, reducing the volume. If the pressure is decreased, the gases are free to move about in a larger volume.

You can see in the graph that the behaviour is: the volume is increasing, so this causes that the pressure increase. The answer would be the third one: pressure increases
