An easy way to move the panel to the bottom of the screen is MMOD Panel by rik.
Open the link in Firefox and activate the extension with the switch in the left area.
The extension also works in GNOME 3.18 (tested on my system).

(Assuming you're using the Classic desktop) you can just Super-Alt-Drag the panels.
If you're using Unity, you can't customise this. If it's something you need, I'd strongly suggest trying the classic desktop.
