I want to change the color of my Google doc background to different colors, but I can't figure out how! Is this possible? And if yes, how?

AFAIK there is no way to change the background color of a single page. The best workaround I can think of is to create a a table that is 1x1 and expand the cell to be as big as possible. You can then change the color of the cell to be whatever you want.
The downside here is that, well, it's a table, so already not ideal. There other thing is that you are constrained by the margins of the page, unless you want to change the margins for every page in the doc.
I just published a free add-on for precisely this task. It's called Link Style, and is available here.
