> 1) Do SMIv1 and v2 refer to any specific version of the SNMP protocols.

No.
As Pranesh says, SMIv1 is obsolete.  Forget about it.
Write your MIB using SMIv2.
   It can still be used with SNMPv1, SNMPv2c or SNMPv3


> 2) What is MIB-I and MIB-II? Are these also SNMP version specific?

MIB-I is also obsolete - forget about it.

MIB-II is the shorthand term for a core collection of (mostly) network-related
statistics and other information.   It was originally defined in RFC 1213, but
many (most?) of the groups have since been developed and extended, in
particular to support more than just IPv4 traffic.

So RFC1213 is now just a relatively small part of the information that is
widely available, but it's still typically valid and in frequent use.


No - neither MIB-II nor any other set of MIB definitions is
specific to a particular version of SNMP.  Any MIB object can be
queried using any version of SNMP - v1, v2c or v3.

(There is one minor exception to that last statement - SNMPv1 can't
be used with objects of syntax Counter64.  But otherwise, all MIB
information is SNMP-version-independent).
