Curry leaf is very sensitive to even the slightest cold. I learned this the hard way.The plant dropped all its leaves and took a very long time to recover.
It will be best to keep it inside, in the sunniest spot you have, until next spring. Do not feed it much in the cold season, and be careful not to overwater. I use Osmocote, a timed-release fertilizer, for potted plants. It is readily available in stores like Home Depot.
