Is it legal for me to create a music remake of an apple loop and make money off it.

Me and my brother made a rock version of one of the apple loops and we were wondering if it was legal to make money off of it by selling it somehow sometime in the future.

That is one of the exceptions that restrict the use of the loops - better have your lawyer look at this:
Using royalty-free loops in GarageBand with commercial workLearn about the usage of royalty-free loops in GarageBand on commercial songs, multimedia presentations, videos, and animations.
It says:
The GarageBand software license agreement says:
"GarageBand Software. You may use the Apple and third party audio loop content (Audio Content), contained in or otherwise included with the Apple Software, on a royalty-free basis, to create your own original music compositions or audio projects. You may broadcast and/or distribute your own music compositions or audio projects that were created using the Audio Content, however, individual audio loops may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound effects or music beds."
So don't worry, you can make commercial music with GarageBand, you just can't distribute the loops as loops.
The problematic part is the last sentence:
you just can't distribute the loops as loops.
