I’m sure an answer like that would have gotten a passing grade too, lol

Actually, it is wrong. Waters on the east coast of continents are warmer as currents tend to rotate clockwise.

On the west coast, the currents bring water down from Alaska after moving up Russia, Bering Sea, etc.

On the East coast, the water is moving upward from the warm waters of the Gulf Stream. It's why hurricanes never get very far north on the West Coast.
