"Mauna Loa"
There's been a number of studies that have concluded:
"In other words, an eruption in one volcano seems to act as a pressure release valve for the other, leading it to experience a period of relative dormancy."
If true, then indeed a die-back of Kilauea could indicate a more active phase for Mauna Loa. IIRC Mauna Loa's status was downgraded from yellow to green shortly after the Leilani eruption began.
