The east coast of the United States today is oriented nearly straight north–south. Do you think the orientation was the same 370 million years ago? Why or why not?

No.

Explanation:

No, I think the orientation was not the same 370 million years ago because 370 millions years ago there is a single super continent is present so with the passage of time, the super continent broken down into seven continents due to the activity of tectonic plates present inside the earth crust. So we can say that the orientation of east coast of United states were not the same 370 million years ago.
