Two quantities are inversely proportional when one is multiplied or divided by any number, the other is divided or multiplied by the same number.
The relation is also commonly denoted as:
y ∝ x−1
The graph of two variables that are inversely proportional is a hyperbola.
Speed and time are inversely proportional because as the speed increases, the time it takes to reach the destination decreases.
Inverse is the opposite of proportion

Yes.
Two variables are said to be in inverse proportion if their product is a constant.So, if X and Y are in inverse proportion, thenXY = k or Y = k/X for some constant k.If you double X then Y is halved. If you decrease X by a factor of 3 then Y is trebled.A common example is Speed and Time for covering a fixed Distance.
direct proportion: y=kx inverse proportion: y=k/x

when both increaes its direct proportion and when one increase and othe decreases its inverse proportion.

Inverse proportion is a mathematical concept and has nothing whatsoever to do with religious concepts such as hell.

The more people there are to share a pizza, the smaller each person's portion will be. This is an example of inverse proportion - as the number of people increases, the size of each person's portion decreases. In traffic, as the number of cars on the road increases, the speed at which each car can travel decreases. This is another example of inverse proportion - as the density of cars increases, the speed of the cars decreases. Similarly, when watering plants, the more plants you have to water, the less water each plant will receive. This is an example of inverse proportion - as the number of plants increases, the amount of water each plant receives decreases.

There cannot be a "proportion of something": proportion is a relationship between two things, and how you solve it depends on whether they (or their transformations) are in direct proportion or inverse proportion.
Yes.
