As the molecules of oil get compressed under less temperature that is why it's solidify the process called freezing.

And in summer the molecules get lossely packed because of high temperature the process called melting.

The phenomenon shows the working of molecule in less and high temperature

Explanation:

Freezes in winters because it has low melting point of around 24oC. If a melting point of a substance is higher than its surrounding temperature, it will exist as solid but if its melting point is lower than its surrounding temperature, it will exist as liquid. During winters the room temperature lies between 10oC-20oC which is much lower than the melting point of coconut oil and thus coconut oil exist as solid
