I know you got the answer out of a book and I should be asking the guy who wrote the book. But only given the information provided I don't see how my answer is wrong. It might not be the only answer since the question was subject to interpretation.
0ºF = -17.778ºC do you agree this is true?
2 x -17.778 = -35.556 do you agree twice as cold would mean two times [2x] as cold?
-35.556ºC = -32.001ºF do you agree this is true?
