Artery - always carries blood FROM the heart
Vein - always carries blood TO the heart
The vein which brings blood to the heart from the lungs is the PULMONARY VEIN ('pulmonary' = lungs). The one carrying blood away from the heart to the lungs is the pulmonary artery. Easy.

It is called the pulmonary artery. the right ventricle pumps out oxygen poor blood to the lungs via the pulmonary artery. The pulmonary vein is what carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.

Where does the name pulmonary artery come from and named an artery if it is not oxiginated blood?
Whether they have oxygen or not, all arteries carry blood away from the heart. And, since the pulmonary arteries carry blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs, it is appropriately called an artery. Any blood vessel that carries blood toward the heart is called a vein. So that is why the oxygenated blood from the lungs uses the pulmonary veins to carry it to the left atrium of the heart.
