Single reed woodwind instruments?
There are two kinds of woodwind instruments that have single reeds: the clarinet family, and the saxophone family. For any size clarinet or saxophone, there is a special size of bamboo reed that fits the mouthpiece for that size. The reed is fastened to the mouthpiece by a ring or band called a ligature. Double-reed instruments have reeds made of two pieces of bamboo instead of one, and the reed fits onto the crook or neck instead of onto a mouthpiece.
The two woodwind family groups are?
The two main groups of the woodwind family are the "flutes" and the "reed instruments." Flutes produce sound by the flow of air across an opening, with examples including the concert flute and piccolo. Reed instruments, on the other hand, generate sound through the vibration of one or more reeds, with examples including the clarinet, saxophone, and oboe. Each group has its unique characteristics and playing techniques, contributing to the diverse sound palette of woodwind instruments.

Is a trumpet tuba french horn saxophone and trombone in the brass family?
Not the saxophone which belongs to the woodwind family. Trumpet, tuba, french horn and trombone are brass instruments. However, the horn may sometimes be classified separately, given that it fits as well with the woodwind instruments (for example within a classic wind quintet). It is thus not uncommon for a conductor to classify the winds as woodwind, horns and brass for practical purposes (for example, when the conductor wants to listen to only one of those groups).
