No, waves with shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies. The wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency, meaning shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies.
I'll answer your question for a variety of waves. For sound waves, higher pitch sounds have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For water waves, the slowest moving waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For seismic waves, S waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than P waves. For electromagnetic waves, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than, say, visible light. For quantum mechanical, de Broglie waves, particles with classical analogues of momentum have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than individual particles.
No, this statement is not true. Shorter wavelengths are actually associated with higher frequencies, while longer wavelengths are associated with lower frequencies. Wavelength and frequency are inversely related in a wave, such as in the electromagnetic spectrum where gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies.
The longest wavelengths are usually referred to as radio waves, whereas the highest frequencies are referred to as cosmic rays (the opposite end of the spectrum).
That depends on the speed of the waves. If you are considering waves at the same speed, then yes, shorter wavelength equals higher frequency. The formula is: frequency = speed / wavelength or wavelength = speed / frequency From this you can clearly see, that if speed remains constant, then when wavelength decreases the frequency will increase and vice versa.
The typical wavelength for gamma waves is between 0.01 and 0.1 nanometers, which corresponds to frequencies of about 30 exahertz to 300 exahertz. These waves are the shortest and highest frequency electromagnetic waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Gamma rays are the waves with the shortest wavelength. The waves having highest frequency have the shortest wavelength. As gamma rays have the highest frequency starting from 10^19 and onwards so they have the shortest wavelength starting from 10^-11 and decreasing.

For the same speed of a wave (I suppose you are referring to electromagnetic waves), the highest frequency corresponds to the shortest wavelength.For the same speed of a wave (I suppose you are referring to electromagnetic waves), the highest frequency corresponds to the shortest wavelength.For the same speed of a wave (I suppose you are referring to electromagnetic waves), the highest frequency corresponds to the shortest wavelength.For the same speed of a wave (I suppose you are referring to electromagnetic waves), the highest frequency corresponds to the shortest wavelength.
Gamma rays would have the shortest wavelength among electromagnetic waves.
