Water at -20 degrees Celsius; heat will expand matter, so at +40 degrees Celsius, water would have less density.

That would be true if there were no phase change. Unfortunately for the above answer, water freezes at 0 deg C and that phase change is accompanied by an expansion. As a result, water at 40 deg C is denser that water (ice) at -20 deg C.

Why does water not freeze at 4 degrees Celsius?

Ice melts at 0 degrees Celsius. That is a speciality of water. At 3.98 degrees Celsius, the density of water is highest before it begins to form ice crystals. Water at this temperature may be a slush of water and ice.
