Since boiling is not the Isotherm process(process at which temperature remains constant). So,if the pressure of a substance is increased during a boiling process then temperature is also getting change. From ideal gas Eq.(2-4) we have:

$$$pV = nRT$$$

where is: -n is the Number of moles and -R is the gas constant.

So, pressure is proportional to the temperature of the body. So,if pressure increased than temperature is also increasing.
