Good morning! I am very new to ArcMap and ArcGIS and my teacher tasked us with changing the background color of our maps to blue so that it looks like the ocean. How do I give the background a color where no matter how far I zoom out, it stays that color? Thank you!

In the layout view right click and get the data frame properties. The frame tab you can set outlines, background colours etc.
