The attribution appears to be correct according to
http://emporium.turnpike.net/C/cs/sagan.htm.  Others have apparently
attributed it to Carl Sagan.

3f4b504568 flexlint rears its head as well as some style(9) fixes[1]. Fixed a
few bugs for a few corner cases and correctly handle the case where
read(2) is read()'ing from a non-file descriptor and could get fewer
bytes back than the buffer, but it isn't EOF[2].  random(6) extensively
tested and believed to be bug free (save performance for large files).

This is an absolute (kelvin) temperature.  I expect that in the original
source it was typeset as $\sim 300~{\rm K}$ or similar, meaning
"approximately 300 K".  Changing it to a minus sign in the fortunes file
was clearly an error, as absolute temperatures are by definition positive.
