Morphology
The adjective 'rosy' (hopeful, promising) directly modifies 'outlook' (a view or expectation), so the compound meaning 'an optimistic view' is transparently derived from its parts. This is a straightforward adjective+noun composition familiar across languages and would be clear to a B1 learner who knows both words.
Etymology
Rosy outlook comes from the image of looking at life through a warm, rosy light, like wearing rose-coloured glasses that make things seem nicer. So saying someone has a rosy outlook means they see the future in a 'hopeful' or 'optimistic' way.
