The confidence interval becomes smaller.
Assuming that other measures remain the same, as the sample estimate increases both ends of the confidence interval will increase. In effect, the confidence interval will be translated to a higher value without any change in its size.Assuming that other measures remain the same, as the sample estimate increases both ends of the confidence interval will increase.

The width of the confidence interval increases.
No, the opposite is true.
When you increase the sample size, the confidence interval typically becomes narrower. This occurs because a larger sample size reduces the standard error, leading to more precise estimates of the population parameter. As a result, while the confidence level remains the same, the interval reflects increased certainty about the estimate. However, the actual confidence level (e.g., 95%) does not change; it simply provides a tighter range around the estimate.
To shorten a confidence interval, you can either increase the sample size or reduce the confidence level. Increasing the sample size decreases the standard error, leading to a narrower interval. Alternatively, lowering the confidence level (e.g., from 95% to 90%) reduces the range of the interval but increases the risk of capturing the true population parameter.

The width of the confidence interval increases.
No, the opposite is true.
The increase in sample size will reduce the confidence interval. The increase in standard deviation will increase the confidence interval. The confidence interval is not based on a linear function so the overall effect will require some calculations based on the levels before and after these changes. It would depend on the relative rates at which the change in sample size and change in standard deviation occurred. If the sample size increased more quickly than then standard deviation, in some sense, then the size of the confidence interval would decrease. Conversely, if the standard deviation increased more quickly than the sample size, in some sense, then the size of the confidence interval would increase.

True
To decrease the width of a confidence interval without sacrificing the level of confidence, you can increase the sample size. A larger sample provides more information about the population, which reduces the standard error and narrows the interval. Additionally, using a more precise measurement technique can also help achieve a narrower interval. However, it's important to note that increasing the sample size is the most effective method for maintaining the desired confidence level while reducing width.
As the confidence coefficient increases, the width of the confidence interval also increases. This is because a higher confidence level requires a larger margin of error to ensure that the true population parameter is captured within the interval. Consequently, while the sample size remains fixed, the interval becomes wider to accommodate the increased uncertainty associated with a higher confidence level.
