No. If the melting point was higher than its actual temperature then the crust would be molten.
False
The temperature of Earth's crust varies widely depending on location. On average, the temperature of the crust increases by about 25 to 30 degrees Celsius per kilometer of depth. In general, at a depth of 30-40 kilometers, temperatures can reach 500-800 degrees Celsius.
The temperature of the Earth's layers increases from the crust towards the core. The outermost layer, the crust, has the lowest temperature, while the inner core has the highest temperature. This gradient is due to the heat generated by radioactive decay in the core and the residual heat from the Earth's formation.
Silica-rich magma forms in mid-ocean ridges due to partial melting of the upper mantle, as a result of increased temperature and decreased pressure. This magma rises through cracks in the oceanic crust and can eventually erupt at the surface as lava.
The temperature of the Earth's crust varies depending on location and depth. On average, the temperature increases by about 25-30 degrees Fahrenheit per kilometer of depth. At the surface, the average temperature is around 50-70 degrees Fahrenheit, but it can reach much higher temperatures at greater depths.

The earths crust varies. There is no temperature because it varies from cold to hot.
Magma
Metamorphic rocks are formed by the effects of high temperature, pressure, and/or chemically active fluids. These forces cause existing rocks to recrystallize and change their mineral composition without melting.
The Earths crust is approximately 650 km deep.
The sun is much hotter than the Earth's crust. The temperature at the Earth's core is estimated to be around 5700 degrees Celsius, whereas the temperature at the surface of the sun is about 5500 degrees Celsius.

The mantle. Molten rock, but not as high of a temperature as the actual core.
