As per the link below, an i3 is not recommended to run above 72 degrees centigrade.

That's seems a tad high. You should check if your fans are working and there is sufficient air flow

Yes. Most laptops draw air in though the keyboard. A few like my ASUS G73 draw it in through the bass speaker grill (on the front edge).

Either way, give it a good shot with canned air from time to time.

When you use compressed air, it could be wise to check if it's flammable or not.

If flammable; might not want to turn your laptop on immediately after you've sprayed it and give it at least 10 minutes. (Recommendation lies around 30 mins [It says this on the can])
