The average Kinetic energy of a gas molecule is say \mathrm{K E}

\mathrm{K E=\frac{3}{2} K_B T=\frac{3}{2} P \mathrm{V}}
\rightarrow with reduction in temperature, the KE of a gas molecule decreases
\rightarrow Pressure of a gas increases with increase in temperature at constant volume
Hence (1) is correct option.
