Consider a classification model that separates email into two categories: "spam" or "not spam." If you raise the classification threshold, what will happen to precision?

Definitely increase.

Raising the classification threshold typically increases precision; however, precision is not guaranteed to increase monotonically as we raise the threshold.

Probably increase.

In general, raising the classification threshold reduces false positives, thus raising precision.

Probably decrease.
