I don't think so. Check this site.

If demand increases while supply decreases for a particulargood;
1. its equilibrium price will increase while quantity of the good produced and sold could increase, decrease or remain constant..
Is it true?

Your supply curve does not change.
Your demand curve moves higher in price and volume.
The new intersection will be at a higher price.
Unless your curves are very strange, it will also be at a higher volume.
Therefore I would say false.

No. Draw initial supply and demand curves. You are given that demand increases -- so shift the demand curve outward. You are given that supply decreases -- so shift the supply curve inward. The new equilibrium price must be higher than before. However the direction of the change in quantity is uncertain. So, I say true.
