They can't compensate for more heat because they do not have their own heat sink or insulator. If the voltage becomes to high than what they can handle they would shut down. This is one of the reasons that IC regulators in power supplies have heat sink to prevent overheating.

I think that IC will try to compensate more heat.

Main purpose of regulators are to maintain a fixed output no matters whether input varies or not. So in case when it receives overload it should simply sample the output voltage and adjust the o/p voltage.
Please correct me I'm wrong.
