< p>The intersection graph $\\mathbb{Int}(A)$ of an $S$-act $A$ over a semigroup $S$ is an undirected simple graph whose vertices are non-trivial subacts of $A$, and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if they have a non-empty intersection. In this paper, we study some graph-theoretic properties of $\\mathbb{Int}(A)$ in connection to some algebraic properties of $A$. It is proved that the finiteness of each of the clique number, the chromatic number, and the degree of some or all vertices in $\\mathbb{Int}(A)$ is equivalent to the finiteness of the number of subacts of $A$. Finally, we determine the clique number of the graphs of certain classes of $S$-acts.
