In general, as temperature rises, so does reaction rate. This is because the rate of reaction is dependent on the collision of the reacting molecules or atoms. As temperature rises, molecules or atoms respond with increased motion, increasing the collision rate, thus increasing the reaction rate.
Because the relationship of reaction rate to activation energy and temperature is exponential, a small change in temperature or activation energy causes a large change in the rate of the reaction.
