when you say 'straighten' do you mean relax? or hot comb?
the rule is to relax then colour, as the colour changes a little when you do it first then relax....but ive always done mine the other way around without a problem. Wait at least 3 weeks between both processes.
 
If you meant hot comb or press, I would colour first then press.
