According to the ideal gas law, \( PV = nRT \), when the volume (V) is held constant and the temperature (T) increases, the pressure (P) must also increase to maintain the equality, assuming the number of moles of gas (n) and the ideal gas constant (R) remain constant.

Therefore, the correct response is:

It would increase.
