In 1 Thessalonians 1:1 and 3:2, 2 Corinthians 1:1 and Philemon 1, Paul refers to Timothy (Timotheus) as 'our brother', a term of respect for Timothy as a Christian and as a preacher. Paul refers to Timothy as a co-worker and personal messenger in several places in 1 Thessalonians, 2 Corinthians, Philippians and Romans.
Acts of the Apostles expands somewhat on the role of Timothy with several references in Acts 16-20, including that his father was a Greek and his mother a Jew (Acts 16:1), but Acts has been re-evaluated by scholars in recent years and it is uncertain how reliable these reports are.
The pseudo-Pauline epistle known as Colossians also refers to Timothy as 'our brother' (verse 1:1), but 1 Timothy and 2 Timothy refer to Timothy as Paul's 'son' (a departure from Paul's words in his genuine epistles).
Hebrews 13:23 mentions that Timothy was free, but this was an addition to the epistle in order to improve its acceptance as having been written by the Apostle Paul. New Testament scholars consider it beyond question that the Epistle to the Hebrews was not really written by Paul, so this comment has no historical basis.

Does the Bible speak about Bishops who were the successors of the Apostles in any books that can be named?
The only books of the Bible that really mention bishops are the pseudo-Pauline epistles known as 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy and Titus. New Testament scholars almost universally believe these books to have been written during the first half of the second century, and coincide with the earliest known appointments of bishops. The Epistles to Timothy portray Paul as appointing Timothy as a bishop, but of course not as his successor, and there is no mention of the bishops being appointed as direct successors of the apostles.
