Is the higher the better?

Should I set my CAP at a altitude higher than that of enemy escort? Or Should I set my bombers at a higher altitude than that of enemy CAP? Thanks.

Higher is better in both cases, although your bombers accuracy will suffer.

If I set the altitude of CAP at a higher level, will it lower the chance of the CAP to catch enemy bombers?

It allows you to dive down on the enemy with greater speed than
the aircraft is capable of on it's own power.
It is a solid tactic too try too fly higher than your enemy and also
you want your escorts to fly higher than your bombers on strike missions.
