have to use zoom for my class
What would be the better option for privacy. Logging into my windows partition and using zoom just for class logging right back out or install zoom on my linux partition?

You can use the 'Firefox Multi-Account Containers' extension for Firefox and create a container for Zoom.
That is no longer necessary with Dynamic State Partitioning. Every top level domain is automatically given its own container, essentially. The extension is really only useful for logging into sites on two accounts simultaneously.
Is this for real? So I shouldn't be worried about using certain websites that they'll track me around?
Sort of. There are still tricks that can be used like redirecting between sites to "sync" their states. Container tabs can still be useful because if they do this then the sites will all be "fresh" to that container and not shared between websites. But for the most part yes, different sites have limited ability to track you other than things like fingerprinting and IP address.
Is there any good explanation of this somewhere?
