It does not matter which terminal is opened, for at least 10 minuits. The electrons don't care, they stop flowing regardless, and the memory will clear to zero.

Some say to remove both terminals, and touch them together. I don't recomend this, as it could be misconstrued, to cause a bit of electric welding . As the power feed on the ECU/TCU are protected by diodes, this methoid can't drain the memory.
