apropos only searches interactive functions (those that can be called
by M-x) by default... but if you give it a parameter:

C-u C-h a point

(I just discovered this myself by: C-h f apropos)

Looks like what you're looking for is point-at-bol and point-at-eol:

(setq line-string
   (buffer-substring (point-at-bol) (point-at-eol)))
