YES. If the air is in a tank and it gets hotter the air pressure will increase.

yes, say with a tire, if the air inside the tire gets hot the air molecules move faster and cause more pressure.
in cold air the opposite happens where the air gets cold and the molecules slow down, which lowers the pressure.

Heat can raise air pressure. Gas is made up of atoms in motion. Heat causes these atoms to move faster and faster. Moving faster causes them to slam against the sides of whatever container they are in and therefore increase pressure.

PV=nRT... pressure(volume)= number of moles(ideal gas constant)(temperature). This means that the temperature has an affect on the pressure and volume of the gas!

pressure, temperature, and volume are all related: check out some of the thermodynamic laws at the bottom of this website:
