Are rock layers always younger than the faults that cut across them?
If the situation is as simple as the one you have stated, it isn't difficult. Meanwhile, many faults displace laterally, either in compression or tension so that it can appear that younger rocks overlie older ones. See the law of super-position. Compressive faults generally force younger rocks below older, but not always. See subduction zones. Then see ophiolite suites.
Who can blow a bigger balloon a older kid or a younger kid?
An older kid should be able t blow a bigger balloon because a younger kid would have less breath and would therefore blow the balloon up slower and the older kid would be able to blow the bigger one. Also, the more air in the balloon the harder it will be to blow it up.
Is a fossil older or younger than a another fossil in a lower rock?

How the principle of superposition was used in determining the relative ags of the cross sections?
The principle of superposition states that the higher layers are younger because they must be laid down on a layer below, which is therefore older, can be used in cross-sections. Each layer, going up, is younger than all the previous layers.
