The correct answer is: **As the charge increases, the force increases in strength.**
According to Coulomb's law, the electric force between two charged objects is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of their charges. Thus, as the charge on one or both objects increases, the magnitude of the electric force between them also increases.
