The error in the sentence "it is bitter cold today" is a missing comma after "bitter."

I'm assuming that you are referring to the comma that would usually occur after the quotation if the sentence was continued, such as, "'Did you have lunch today?' his mother inquired." In that case, the answer is no: the question mark will suffice. If you were referring to a comma that would come before the question, though, as in, "His mother inquired, 'Did you have lunch today?'", the answer is yes, because standard grammatical rules for any sentence apply. As a side note, thank-you for saying 'quotation' instead of 'quote'!
