If you didn't live in the other state at any time in 2016, you will not have to file a tax return in the state where your bank account is. Money deposited in a bank account in another state is not considered income from that state.

However, it's not clear when you moved. If you lived in the other state for part of 2016, you will have to file part-year resident returns for both the old state and your new state (assuming both states have state income tax).

If I don't live in that state in the future will I have to file a tax return for the interest I earn on the account? It would be very little interest as the money deposited is used to pay bills through the banks on-line bill paying service.  The state where my bank is, is New York I now live in Georgia.

You will not have to file a New York tax return in the future. Investment income, including bank interest, is considered income from the state that you live in, no matter where the account is located.
