In general, the boiling point of an alkane depends upon the mass. Greater the mass, greater is the bp.
So, as the number of Carbon atoms increases in the chain, the boiling point will also increase. This is the same for an alkane, alkene or alkyne. This is because the Van der Waal's forces increase as the chain grows longer and it needs more amount of energy to overcome them.
However, if the new Carbon atom is added as a branch, it is going to decrease the boiling point. This is because the surface area comes into play and as the surface area of the hydrocarbon decreases, it reduces the extent of the Van der Waal's forces.
BP of alkanes and alkenes are usually similar for compounds with the same number of carbon atoms.
