To survey is to ask a lot of people the same question or questions. (It can also mean to look over a large area or to measure land, but I don't think that's what you're asking about.) For example, a business might survey the public to find out what kind of products are popular.
To interrogate is to ask someone questions that they don't want to answer. For example, the police might interrogate a suspected criminal.
