Major arteries like the aorta transfer oxygenated blood from the heart to the body tissues.
Coronary arteries are those branches from the major aorta that feed the heart with oxygenated blood.
Arteries are the vessels which carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart, except for the pulmonary artery, which is the only artery (besides umbilical arteries inside of a fetus) that carries deoxygenated blood. The pulmonary artery carries blood away from the heart into the lungs.
The thing that carries oxygen in your blood is the protein hemoglobin.
Arteries always carry blood away from the heart. Veins always carry blood back to the heart. Not all arteries carry high O2 blood. Not all veins carry low O2 blood. They are named for where they go not what they carry.

What are the blood vessels that take oxygen-poor blood away from the heart?
Arteries take blood away from the heart (arteries=away). Almost always these carry blood high in oxygen. Veins carry blood back to the heart and almost always carry blood low in oxygen. The only exception: Pulmonary arteries carry blood away from the heart but they are low in oxygen and need to pick up this in the lungs. The Pulmonary veins carry oxygen to heart from the lungs.
