THE "t" in mt designates that the air mass originated in the tropics. The "p" in mp designates that it is an air mass that has originated in polar regions and therefore, based on their origins the tropic air mass would obviously contain higher temperatures. The confusion here may lie in the fact that these air masses occure throughout the year and winter and spring air masses compared to each other at different times of the year may be closer in temperature than the two air masses that occure at the same time of year. So, a winter mt will be cooler than a spring mt and a summer mt will be warmer than an autumn mt, and so on.
The mT air mass comes from the Gulf of Mexico. It stands for Maritime Tropical and brings warm and moist winds.
