So there is a few remaining amounts of oil in the 5Qt case I have from my last oil change. Can I use the oil at the bottom for my next oil change after the next 5,000 miles? Or because the case has been opened it's been contaminated with moisture in the air? I think you're not suppose to use any remaining transmission fluid in a bottle, but not sure about motor oil.

Assuming the jug was closed after your last oil change and as long as the opened/remaining oil is less than a couple years old, yes - it's fine.

Engine oil and transmission oil are fine. They're not particularly hygroscopic. I would have absolutely no problem using it.
Brake fluid and gasoline are different. With those you want fresh stuff.
