A

Ek = 1/2*m*V^2

Take ideal gas for example, the Vrms is (3RT/M)^1/2. Ek is proportional to T.

Therefore, Ek is the lower at the low temperature. Another perspective is the average kinetic energy. The average kinetic energy is equal to (3/2)RT, so the average kinetic energy is proportional to temperature.
