Can a dog get a cold from going from warm inside to staying in the colder outside?

The simple answer is "no" -- dogs, and humans as well, do not contract illnesses merely by spending time outdoors in cold weather. However, if the dog is spending time with other, unfamiliar dogs or in unfamiliary territory where diseased feces, etc., may be present, your dog could conceivably end up with, among other things, kennel cough, Valley Fever, parvovirus -- unless he/she is vaccinated against such diseases.
That said, depending on your climate, it's never a great idea to leave a dog out in snowy, rainy, or severely cold (or hot, for that matter, for other reasons) weather for long periods of time. There are a few reasons for this, the first being that dogs, like humans, can develop frostbite and hypothermia. Dogs are social creatures, and to be cast out of the family like an unwanted cockroach can potentially cause behavioral issues down the road.

No, not until you're already dead of hypothermia and has started to freeze solid. One of the reasons why the so-called warm blooded creatures have been so successful is that our "inside" climate stays the same pretty much regardless of what's going on at the outside.

How do you stop a dog from urinating inside when he is taken outside quite a lot throughout the day?
Dogs need to understand that there is a right and wrong difference between going inside and going outside. If not told going inside is wrong, then they will continue to do that because it is where they are comfortable and used to going. When you catch your dog going inside ( and they have to be caught in the act, not after or they won't learn from the experience) immediately disrupt them with a loud firm no and clap with your hands to get their attention and startle them. immediately following this take them straight outside to an appropriate potty place and once there praise them. with consistency your dog will learn that in order to please you they need to not potty in the house.
