Warm air is less dense and tends to rise, cool air is more dense and tends to sink. That is why a hot air balloon rises if the air inside is warmer than the outside air.

Do rabbits get cold in a cold basement?

Rabbits can get sick from their environment but are more than likely to get sick from other reasons than the basement being cold. Drafts, dampness and poor air circulation would be more likely causes. Also if a rabbit is already carrying a cold germ it may be exacerbated by any of these conditions where if in a normal environment with good air circulation they would not exhibit any cold symptoms.
