Yes, the atmosphere helps regulate Earth's temperature by trapping heat from the sun through the greenhouse effect. This helps maintain a relatively stable climate suitable for life on Earth.
The Earth's atmosphere acts like a security blanket by providing protection from harmful solar radiation, regulating temperature to keep conditions suitable for life, and trapping gases to maintain a stable climate. Without this protective layer, the Earth would be much colder and life as we know it would not be possible.
Of course, greenhouse gases keep the Earth from being one large popsicle. The newest studies of the atmosphere indicate that the atmosphere is pretty stable, now. The reason is that nearly all of the greenhouse gases are water vapor mostly evaporated from the oceans.
Photosynthesis in plants absorbs CO2 from the atmosphere, while respiration from animals and decomposition of organic matter releases it back. These two processes work in balance to keep the concentration of CO2 relatively stable in the atmosphere.
If there were no greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, Earth's average temperature would be significantly colder. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane trap heat in the atmosphere, helping to keep the planet warm. Without them, Earth's surface would not retain as much heat from the sun, resulting in much lower temperatures.

There is no atmosphere on the moon. There is insufficient gravity to keep an atmosphere there.

because the Earth has more of an atmosphere, and the Moon does not. the atmoshpere holds in heat and cold, so on the moon there is not anything to keep the temperature stable
Homeostasis
the ocean absorbs more than 50% of the heat that reaches the earths surface from the sun. The heat radiates of the ocean and makes surroundoing areas warm. but also like plants the ocean also takes in carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere which allows for the global temperature to decrease. these 2 main patterns help to keep the temprature of the earth stable.

They are warm blooded. They do it the same way as humans.

A cloud cover after sunset will stop the day's warmth from escaping into space.
