Does probability of type 2 error decrease when probability of type 1 error increases?

Yes.
Explanation:
Type I error and Type 2 error have an inverse relationship. If probability of one error is decreased, the other one will increase. Typically, we cannot simultaneously reduce type I and Type II error.
But there is one way to reduce both simultaneously, i.e, by increasing sample size.
