I have a question about resistors...Wouldn't a 40-ohm resistor be the hottest while the 20-ohm resistor is the coolest or is it the other way around?

If the voltage across the circuit is 120 V and has a 12-A fuse, will the fuse melt if all the lamps and the heater are on?

The fuse will melt if the sum of all component currents > 12 A. Refer to your other question to see if that is the case.
