A textbook I use talks about the effects of adding \$R_{E}\$ in a common emitter amplifier.
For For stabilization of the circuit due to negative feedback
As the Device gets hotter, more collector current flows, VBE reduces which limits the increase in collector current
What I don't get in this is how when \$V_{BE}\$ reduces this causes a decrease in the collector current as from one of the equations in the textbook $$I_{c}=\alpha I_{E} $$ and $$I_{E}\ =\frac{V_{Bias}-V_{BE}}{R_{E}}$$.
From my rudimentary understanding if \$V_{BE}\$ were to reduce wouldn't \$I_{E}\$ increase which would case an increase in \$I_{C}\$ from the first equation.
