Hello!
The drift velocity is the average velocity of the charge that resides in the conductor. So we can say that the drift velocity is directly proportional to the relaxation time ,which means as the drift velocity increases relaxation time also increases and vice versa reason being the charge carries have more time to accelerate between collisions.
Thankyou!
Hope it helps!
