The forward reaction is an endothermic reaction. This means that the back reaction is exothermic. In the forward reaction, the system absorbs energy from the surroundings and the temperature decreases. Conversely, in the back reaction, the system releases energy to the surroundings and the temperature increases.

So, using Le Châtelier's principle, if you make a change to an equilibrium system, the reaction will shift in the direction that counteracts that change until a new equilibrium is established.

In this case we want the reaction to go backwards to consume $NO_"(g)"$, so if we decrease the temperature, the reaction will seek to oppose this change by increasing the temperature.

It does this by moving in the back/exothermic direction, which releases heat.
