They're both different organs with distinct functions, so it would be similar to asking "Is the apple superior to the orange?". On another note, you'll still live with your gallbladder removed, but you won't live long without your liver. For example, in liver failure, there might be massive ascites and caput medusae.

Can a person survive without a liver?
The liver is the only organ in the human body that can regenerate. It is possible to live with part of your liver because it will regenerate itself. Many times only part of a liver is transplanted during a transplant.
Why It is not possible to transplant gallbladder without liver transplant?
The gallbladder is not essential - you can live without it quite easily (like your appendix). So it is never transplanted since it is not necessary. And when having a liver transplant, the gallbladder (both the original and the transplanted) are removed. Nobody with a liver transplant has a gall-bladder.
Can a live person donate a liver?
Yes, in fact, donating a liver makes you live longer!
Why can you live without your gallbladder and what is its main function?
You can live without a gallbladder because the gallbladder is just a pouch for the enzymes that break down fats. Your liver actually makes these enzymes, and it will continue to make the enzymes after the gallbladder is removed.
What happens to the space left after your gallbladder is removed?
After the gallbladder is removed, the space left behind is filled with surrounding tissues and organs. The body adjusts to the absence of the gallbladder by redistributing bile production and storage functions to the liver and small intestine. Most people can live a normal, healthy life without their gallbladder.
