The basis of this relationship is the rough balance between the net uptake of carbon into deep pools (mainly the deep ocean) and the rate at which the oceans warm in response to an energy imbalance. This figure is from the AR6 SPM: The relationship between cumulative carbon emissions and temperature (SPM AR6).

However, on the level of basic physical reasoning, it is of course a no-brainer that warming will cause land-ice to melt (and melt faster as it gets hotter) and ocean waters to expand, so sea-level rise is the inevitable result. That depends on our emissions and is shown in the following figure. Source: IPCC AR6, Figure SPM.8.
