Is it possible to draw a high frequency wave with long wavelength?

It depends on what you consider high frequency and long wavelength. However, as frequency increases, wavelength decreases and vice versa. In fact, frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength.

Does ROY G. BIV list colors from long wavelength to short wavelength or short to long wavelength?

The color of visible light with the longest wavelength is red; the color with the shortest is violet. So "ROY G. BIV" lists the colors from long to short wavelength. Just to confuse you, we'll also mention that it lists them from lowest to highest frequency.

What wave would have more enery one with a long wavelength or a short wavelength?

Both a wave with long wavelength and a wave with short wavelength can have a lot of energy, or little energy.Specifically in the case of electromagnetic waves, a short wavelength corresponds to high energy - but this is only the energy PER PHOTON. But note that each of such waves usually consists of a lot of photons.
