Is it possible for summer time to you shorter then winter days?
This is not the clearest question I've ever seen, but if you mean "is it possible for daylight on a summer day to be a shorter length of time than daylight on a winter day", then no, it's not possible.
Why are the days in summer long and nights short while in winter days are short and nights are long?
Assuming you're in the United States, the longest day of the year is the first day of summer. The shortest day of the year is the first day of winter. Daylight hours get progressively shorter after the first day of summer until they reach their shortest, again this being the first day of winter. Therefore, the last day of autumn is the day before the day with the shortest number of daylight hours. So to answer your question, autumn does contain some days in December with the shortest number of daylight hours in the entire year. Hope that helps.
