How much heat does methane trap?

It is not clear what you mean by 'trap'. It contains chemical energy which can be released by burning, giving 55.5 MJ per kg. You may however be referring to the ability of the substance to absorb heat, i.e. its heat capacity. This is the amount of energy absorbed when the temperature of the substance increases by 1 degree Kelvin. This is 2.087 kJ/kgK at 200 K. (It varies a little with temperature.)

Why is the enthalpy change of combustion for methanol less negative than methane?

The combustion of methanol to form products of H2O and CO2 do not have as much of an energy change compared to methane and a result methanol releases less energy compared to methane. The more negative an enthalpy change is, the more heat it is going to release.
