I think 3-bromo propanoic acid is weaker than 2-bromo propanoic acid as Bromine is an electron withdrawing group and it helps to stabilise the anion.

To check the order of acidity for both just remove the acidic H⁺ bonded with Oxygen and check which of the remaining Anoins is more stable.

In 2-bromo propanoic acid Bromine is closer to Anionic part than the Bromine in 3-bromo propanoic acid. So the -ve charge is better stabilised by 2-Bromo-Propanoic Acid and hence it is Stronger.
