Why would bees be out flying around in 36 degree weather?
I assume that you mean 36 on the Fahrenheit scale ie, 4 degrees above freezing. This is just about as low as it can get before bees will not leave their hive. On a sunny day, even when the temperature is this low, bees will leave their hive on an 'evacuation' or 'cleansing' flight rather than use the inside of their hive as a toilet.
Why do farmers choose to have honey bees pollinate their apples as opposed to other bee species?
Honey bees live in a colony of around 50,000 bees in the season so there are more of them when needed. Bumble bees might have only 50 bees in a nest but are still used when growing fruit in polytunnels.
