If I understand your question correctly, you want to partition yy in 
sets such that the
corresponding frequencies x of the elements in the i-th set are such 
that bb[[i-1]]<=x<bb[[i]].
One way of doing this is to do something like

MapThread[Pick[yy, xx, a_ /; #1 <= a < #2] &, {ArrayPad[bb, {1, -1}], bb}]
