Of the colors visible to humans, red light has the lowest wavelength. Violet light and white light have the highest wavelengths.
Each color has a wavelength and frequency associated with it. We're familiar with the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. These colors range from longer wavelength (lower frequency) red up through shorter wavelength (higher frequency) violet. As one moves up through those colors from red to violet, the color is an indication to relative wavelength.
Color is the perception of wavelength. We see the colors means that we are seeing the waves with a specific wavelengths.
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.
Colors are ordered by frequency, or equivalently, by wavelength.

difference of wavelength and frequencies
The color red has the longest wavelength of any color.
The color red has the longest wavelength of all the colors in the light spectrum.

the wavelength of the reflected light :)
A higher frequency means a shorter wavelength, and a lower frequency means a longer wavelength.

Wavelength. You could also say frequency, since wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional.
