Edit, to clarify:

Yes, cold temperatures only slow the rate at which bacteria develop, and I am referring to resistance in the sense that the bacteria are no longer affected by cold temperatures and will develop as usual.

Is this correct terminology? Perhaps this is a question of physics more so than the microbiology of how and what bacteria become resistant to.
