The normal basal body temperature fluctuates during the day, often its lowest in deep sleep around 4 AM for many and highest mid- afternoon around 4 PM. The numbers you cite are well within the normal range and not considered fever. The body's metabolism drives basal temperature, and higher metabolic or physical activity will increase it.
