A joint bank account or more likely a portion of such might become part of the deceased estate depending upon how the account is held. Most accounts held jointly by family members are done so under the law of rights of survivorship and therefore revert to the living account holder(s) upon the death of the another.
In any case, just being a joint account holder does not make the person responsible for the repayment of debt incurred by the deceased.
If the account is a joint account with your mother, you and your brother, the surviving joint owners can close the account and share the balance. When the account was opened the three of you should have signed signature cards and all names should be listed as account owners. One or both of you should be able to simply make a withdrawal of the balance and close the account.

It really depends upon the contents of a will and how the property is titled under the wording of the deed.

A married couple share responsibility for all debts. If he is deceased, the estate will have to resolve the debt before she can receive her inheritance.
If your grandmother died and devised her home to her heirs then you may be entitled to inherit your father's share, whatever that may be, according to the intestate succession laws in your grandmother's state. If he had a spouse she may also receive a portion. If he had no spouse his children would share equally. However, the wording of your grandmother's will may direct who will inherit the share of a deceased child. Property may be devised to a person's children with the share of any deceased child to pass to his own sisters and brothers. Or, property may be devised to a person's children with the share of any deceased child to go to the deceased child's children (grandchildren). You need to check the wording of the will and you may need to check the laws in the state where your grandmother's will is probated.
