Voltage and current are actually inversely proportional to one another. The formula P=IV is what you need to look at here, where P is Power, V is voltage, and I is current. Rearranging the equation you will see that V = P/I. You can see that if you increase voltage, while holding power constant, current is reduced. Now, to your question. The losses on a transmission line are proportional to the current flowing on the line, so transmitting at high voltage (and hence low current) is beneficial as it reduces the amount of power that is lost due to resistance in the line itself.

Q: Why During transmission of power it is transformed as high voltage rather than high current how is this possible as current and voltage are directly proportional?

Is it possible the engine oil to drain in auto transmission?

No its not possible for motor oil to leak into any transmission, that are not directly connected to each other for fluid transfer. they're only attached by a flywheel or in autos case a flexplate.... It is possible for the engine oil to leak at the rear seal into the transmission, but it will leak to the ground through a hole in the bottom of the transmission made for this purpose.
