Mirrors reflect light and light carries heat energy. Heat energy is also carried by non-visible radiation, particularly infra-red light. That too can be reflected by mirrors, but they are designed to reflect visible light best. Infrared rays are a form of heat that can be reflected by a mirror.

According to my view, the answer is incorrect.

Heat can travel in any directions, only for a derivative point of view we are considering it as unidirectional flow.
