I am sorting stamps in new stock books and I came up on these.

Are they bi-color stamps? Thanks.

Bi means two. Two colour. These only appear to be a single colour. Monocolour if you will.
They may be four colour process which means cyan magenta yellow and black were used to create colours, but they are still monochromatic.

Use your loupe to check for the colour dots of the 4 colour process.

Here are a couple bicolor stamps, where you would swear the artist was using more than two colors:
