Turtles don't live in the Arctic Ocean because the water there is only about 33 degrees F (0.5 C). Turtles are cold blooded, and therefor rely on their environment to supply them with heat. A turtle would die from the cold very, very quickly in the Arctic Ocean.
There are some fish, however, that can live in the Arctic, even though all fish are cold blooded. They are able to do this because of special adaptations that they have, which turtles lack.

No. Reptiles need heat to keep their bodies functioning. Reptiles can not survive in severe extended cold temperatures. They would get frozen solid.
It's too cold and there is no food chain on the Antarctic continent. No animal lives there.
Turtles - like all reptiles - can't generate much body heat, and would pretty much freeze solid in the Arctic/Antarctic. So they don't live there.
No. It's too cold and there is no food chain there for turtles.
