ch2=ch-br has high resonance energy because lone pairs on Br involve in resonance easily giving more delocalization and hence more resonance energy. Flourine is more elctronegative thats why lone pairs present on it does not involve in delocalization effectively.

yes the other one has more resonance energy because resonanance is more effective in C-F bond than in C-Br bond
