Answer

The magnitude of the frictional force increases as friction increases.

Work Step by Step

The force of friction has a direct relation with the normal force on the object by the surface. So as the normal force increases, the force of friction increases. Increasing $\theta$ also increases the normal force, which ultimately increases the frictional force.
