I don't think it means to control temperature. Controlling our temperature is like saving ones energy. In the good mood everyone can keep their temper with them they do not try to release as they are in good mood so they keep it.

To keep one's temper: to maintain control of one's composure despite being angry or upset.
That can be only possible when someone is in a good mood at that time they remain calm and easily controlled their temper.

Keep one's temper means to stay calm or not to get angry.
You might say someone who is getting angry or annoyed with someone/something to keep one's temper ie not to loose one's temper.

'To keeps, one's temper' needn't necessarily mean 'To be in good mood'.
For example, one can also hold their anger by remaining quiet.

Controlling the temper drives you to the normal mode. An example sentence: "To keep his temper, he used to hear the songs".
