What Is the Relationship between Strike Price and Option Premium?

Generally, for call options, a lower strike price results in a higher option premium, as it offers a greater chance of being ITM and a higher intrinsic value. For put options, a higher strike price results in a higher premium.

The strike price is a primary determinant of the option's intrinsic value component.
