I'm designing a web application that crowdsources user response to another user's initiative (or project idea). The overall user response to the initiative is represented using a status component with 3 states: Warm, Lukewarm, Cold (a Warm response is a more well-received response).
I'm using #FB6B7B for warm, #45CBE5 for cold. However, I am unsure of what color to use for lukewarm. May I ask what is the color associated with lukewarm in the eyes of the general public?

There isn't really a color associated with lukewarm. As the diagram in @xiota's answer shows, the color association humans have (red = warm, blue = cold) are even the opposite to what you'd expect from a physics point of view.
- Since 'lukewarm' is the neutral option, you could go with a neutral color: gray. Do make the button's style different from disabled buttons, if you have any.
- Since 'lukewarm' is the middle option, you could go with the color in between red and blue: purple.
- Since 'lukewarm' is presented in the middle, users will know it's the neutral option in between warm and cold regardless of the color of the button. Of course, its color shouldn't lean too much to one of the other options; I wouldn't choose another shade of blue or red.

How did you decide on cool vs warm? I often see responses color coded green-yellow-red. It seems to work well without explanation, probably because people are familiar with traffic lights.
There is a color temperature scale that runs along a blue-red spectrum that is commonly used to adjust white balance on cameras. Notice that blue is hotter, while red is cooler. Intermediate colors are white, yellow, orange.

The color theory has three parts: optics, of which you make a very good reference in your answer, metric, which corresponds to all systems of color measurement, and perceptual, which refers to the incidence of color in our senses. About the latter there are thousands of treatises, a book of theory and perception of color is a good starting point.
