I would say, in зима морозная the adjective is predicative: The winter is frosty, but in морозная зима it is used attributively: the frosty winter.

Cheers for that. However, I found another example which I am not sure whether the rule you mentioned above are applicable?

===================
Цветёт земля чудесная,
и ей мы говорим,
что Родину Советскую
за всё благодарим.

Мы сильные, здоровье,
нам всех привольней жить,
идём мы в школы новые
учиться и дружить.

И станут нам известными
все горы и моря,
мы школьники советские
с начала сентября.
===================

I wanted to write something, but then thought I'd live it to the native speakers.
I feel the right to enjoy the discussion, now :)

The position of the adjective in Russian is not fixed, it can be put before as well as after the noun to which is referred.

The only thing is: if the whole sentence is "школы новые", that will be translated as "Schools are new" (Even if it should be written as "школы - новые")
But here we have a sentence where школы новые is only a part of the speech, in this case, the place to which we are going "идём мы в школы новые", so here новые is an attribute, as Cabaire said.

Russian language leaves a lot of freedom as for the order of the words in a sentence, and, expecially in riddles or songs, they're much more mixed than during a speech, to keep the rhytm and make it sound beautiful. That happens more often in Russian than any of the languages I know, actually.

Another question related to instrumental case.

What is the difference between those two sentences below and why does latter use
instrumental and former not?

- Древние славяне были язычники.

- В древности славяне были язычниками.

Mrs.Dalloway is absolutely right.(Школы новые is written without a hyphen. A hyphen is
put only between two nouns, numbers or infinitives or any mixture of them: Семь -
нечётное число Seven is an odd number).
In oral speech the relationship between words is expressed by intonation.

No difference. Both are correct.

Can reverse of those also be correct, shown as below?

- Древние славяне были язычниками.

- В древности славяне были язычники.
