Laying one's hands on a set of Steam Tables would mean never having to ask this question again. The information needed is in the public domain.

Since the effect is non-linear, you cannot say whether it increases or decreases as temperature rises unless you also say what temperature it is at currently. If you are in a class where it is claimed otherwise, you are wasting your tuition.

It is noteworthy that the minimum specific heat capacity occurs near body temperature, rising sharply below that temperature, but rising gradually above it. This might be understood as nature's way of telling us that we should play football in the moderate climate of Pittsburgh, since we easily suffer heat stroke in New Orleans, but we can tolerate Green Bay for short periods of time.

I have used WASP (Water and Steam Properties)for 20 years.

Its not expensive and its great and complete, that I can actually cut and paste them in my reports/manuals.
