The first answer is correct. Gases are less soluble with increasing temperature. That's one reason why electric plants are only allowed to release water that is not heated more than for example two degrees (Kelvins) above the temperature of river. Fish couldn't get enough oxygen because it is less soluble in warmer water.

solubility of a gas is inversely proportional to the temperature. at higher temperatures the gas will not dissolve easily in the liquid, until great pressure is applied. one day to day experience with this phenomenon is that soft drinks (with dissolved carbon dioxide) are served chilled so that maximum gas is kept dissolved and the fizzy taste of the drink does not decrease.

Gas solubitity in liquids decreases with increase in temperature.

solubility of a gas increases with the increse in temp. The increase in temp. causes the molecules to vibrate more and hence the difference between the molecules increases and the solubility increases.
