It could be both!
In order for ice cream to be a sold, it must be 0 Degrees C, at a minimum. (0 Degrees C = 32 Degrees F) This turns it from its liquid state to its solid state. However, you can lower the temperature of the solid ice cream further to 0 Degrees F in a commercial freezer.

Water changes into ice at 0 degrees Celsius.
Density= 0.92 Boiling Point = 100 degrees C Melting Point= 0 degrees C freezing point= 0 degrees C
0°C or 32°F32 degrees Fahrenheit, 0 degrees Celcius. If just a tiny bit more energy is removed from the system the water will freeze to ice, also at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, 0 degrees Celcius, but with slightly less kinetic energy. Therefor ice, having the same temperature but less kinetic energy than water at 32 degrees will chill something better. That's why a homemade ice cream maker uses ice that you add salt to. the salt melts the ice and it absorbs heat from the ice cream mixture, chilling it. The same thing won't work with salt water, even at 32 degrees. That, my friends, is basic thermodynamics. Water of melting ice has zero degreesCelsius, 32 oF.
