depending on how far away from the equator you go in either direction

North or south, it will be equally warm and cold, depending on the season,

but the closer to the equator you are the warmer it is.

All other things (such as elevation) being equal, the closer you get to the equator, the hotter the average temperature.

No, the equator is hot year round because of its exposure to the sun. The poles of the earth are cold.

In general, it's warmer near the equator (within, say, about 20 degrees north or south of it) and gets gradually cooler as you move away from it.

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.
