It's both south and north of the equator. The equator passes through northern South America, leaving 4 countries (Venezuela and the Guianas) in the northern hemisphere, along with most of Colombia and parts of Ecuador and Brazil.

Four of the major countries of South America are completely above the equator (Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana), three are across it (Ecuador, Colombia, and Brazil), and the remaining six are south of the equator (Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay).

The equator runs through Ecuador, Columbia, and Brazil, so these three northern countries of South America are in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Guyana, Suriname, Venezuela, and French Guiana are other northernmost countries in South America and are fully above the equator. Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Chile, and Argentina are fully below the equator.

Why are the seasons reversed in North and South America?

Because of where each continent is located. North America is north of the Equator, where air patterns (weather) travel from west to east. South America is south of the Equator, where air patterns travel from east to west. This is also due to the force of gravity on Earth. North of the Equator the Coriolis effect is from west to east, while south of the Equator it is reversed.
