Depending on how you spell the word Chile, you can get a different answer to this question. Among Chileheads and the New Mexico State University Chile Pepper Institute (see link below), the correct American English spelling of the fruit known as a "hot pepper" is "chile", the same as the country, although lower case. Chili is the name of the popular soup of the SW in the US (and TX ~ without beans) and it uses a spice mix called Chili Powder that contains chile powder along with cumin and other spices. The folks in the UK call chiles "chillies." If you are cold, you could be called chilly.
Now with terminology sorted out, chili (the soup) can be as hot as the chiles used to make it, so they can be equally hot to the chile or chile powder in the chili powder or that you might add in addition to the chili powder. Most commercial chili powder is not very hot, so Chileheads usually add more chile powder made of their favorite type of chiles to make it hotter.
There are some very mild chiles, such as New Mexico, Anaheim, banana and "cherry peppers", so if the chili is made with those types of chiles, it will be less hot.

The Scotch Bonnet is much, much hotter than the Serrano. Serranos tend to be hotter than jalapenos, as a comparison point, and they cap off at about 23,000 Scoville Heat Units. However, you can get some serranos that have very little heat, at least as mild as the mildest jalapeno. Although the hottest Serrano chile will feel like fire to the inexperienced, the mildest Scotch Bonnet will blow it away. Scotch Bonnets are comparable to Habanero chiles, at 150,000 to 325,000 Scoville Heat Units. They are among the hottest chile peppers commonly used although not the hottest by today's standards, since there are chile peppers at close to 1.5 million Scoville Units.
