The very first film adaptation of The Wizard of Oz was actually a silent, black-and-white film released in 1925. However, the 1939 MGM movie is more famous. If you look closely at the credits, you can see that the movie was filmed using Technicolor film technology. Because this was more expensive than black and white film, color film was not used widely until a few decades later. It simply was not economical to produce every film in color.

Yes. The 1939 classic version of Wizard of Oz with Judy Garland was one of early color movies. The Kansas scenes are in black & white, but all of the Oz scenes are in color.

Some of it was yes. The scenes filmed when Dorothy was in Oz were filmed in color. The scenes filmed in Kansas were filmed in sepia.

The 1939 Judy Garland "Wizard of Oz" was shot in black and white for the Kansas scenes, and in full color for the Oz scenes. It was one of the earliest movies in color.
