Morphology
The meaning 'a relationship determined by timing' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'temporal' (pertaining to time) with 'relation' (a connection). This compositional meaning follows normal English noun-modifier patterns and has clear cross-linguistic parallels, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents should be able to infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Temporal relation comes from the simple idea that temporal means 'time' and relation means a 'link'. Imagine events as dots on a line connected by arrows showing which happens before or after, and that's why the phrase means a 'link' based on time.
