First : make sure the pic is in RBG mode.

Second : "colorize" it.

That give just one color - so you'll have to sectionalize the picture and change that color ... I suggest you use "curves" to do that.

Can you scan a black and white picture and make it color?

Yes, but you won't get colors such as blue or yellow. You will receive a color image of black and white. Your image never had color. Take a new picture in color and you will not have black and white. If you're good with photoshop (or something similar), you can use that to add color that wasn't there before. But that is difficult.
