Love questions like this as it show what a big head I am. The lighter the color the more heat is reflected back. Black then will absorb more heat. Now the big headed part of me. Black is not actually a color but the absence of color. So how do we see it you may ask ? (Go on ask me) Well we see black owing to the object not absorbing all light, technically, it may still be reflecting some light.

Hard to understand? Yep! physics can be like that.

If the color on the background is darker it is more likely to absorb the heat. If it is lighter it repels the light or absorbs less. Also, concrete slabs, brick walls and tile floors absorb the heat.
