iPhone answers call on its own after only 10 seconds, doesn’t go to voicemail

My friend’s iPhone answers calls on its own after 10 seconds, with no interaction from him, even if he’s nowhere near it. It used to go to voicemail after 4 rings (the usual 25-30 seconds), but about a month ago it started this odd behavior. I have an iPhone myself, but don’t know a lot about them, and have never heard of this behavior. Can anybody clarify why it does this, and how to get it to return to normal?

iPhone 7
