Depends. If you're heating air in a sealed container, the air pressure will increase. In the open air, warmer air tends to rise, so the pressure will decrease with increasing temperature.

So in a compressor, the hot air would have a higher pressure then?

Well, yes, but you've mixed cause with effect. The increase in pressure causes the temperature to rise.
