Schedule B, titled Interest and Ordinary Dividends, is filed with Form 1040 or Form 1040A for seven reasons.

Do I have to pay income tax in Alabama on income that was earned in Georgia?

If you are an Alabama resident, then yes, you must pay taxes on the income in both states. You would file a Georgia non-resident income tax return. Fill out the Georgia tax return first. When you fill out your Alabama return, attach Alabama Schedule CR to your Alabama return. Schedule CR will allow you to take a credit for some of the tax paid to Georgia.
