An object's density is inversely proportional to the object's volume. As the volume increases the density decreases, and vice versa.

Yes, density is defined as the mass of an object divided by its volume. It represents how much mass is present in a given volume of the object. Density is typically measured in units such as grams per cubic centimeter or kilograms per cubic meter.

Volume is not directly related to the density - but it is related. Density is defined as mass/volume. You can add more mass of the same density and increase volume - 2 gallons of water will have more volume than 1 gallon but the density stays the same. On the other hand, if you keep the mass the same and change the volume, the density will change as well; compressing 5 liters of air into 1 liter without adding or removing any of the air will increase the density by a factor of 5.

Correct. That is the precise definition of density.
