What were amphora's used for?
Traditionally not many colours were used on Amphora. I myself only study Ancient Greek Amphora, so i cant speak for other eras and types of Amphora.

Sometimes paint was added onto the amphora after it has been fired, but these were never very bright. For information on how black/red figure was achieved you will have to look on wikipedia (because I'm not a potter). But bassicaly the main colours were red, black and sometimes white.

What is a greek or roman bottle?
There were very few small hand held, portable "bottles" at the time as they were determined not to be cost effective given the very little volume they would hold. Instead, an "Amphora" (Plural: amphorae) was used to transport fluids. An amphora was similar to the size of a modern day flower vase with handles on either side. Drinkable fluid from an amphora would be poured into a small "Kylix" which is the most direct equivalent to a small drinking cup.
