What spells would be associated with my Draconic Bloodline sorcerer's Dragon Ancestor, for the purpose of the 6th-level Elemental Affinity feature?
I picked Brass Dragon as my ancestry; would it be fire spells?

Best Answer
Yes, it's fire
The Draconic Bloodline sorcerer's Dragon Ancestor feature tells you to pick a type of dragon to serve as your dragon ancestor, with a table associating each dragon type with a particular damage type:
The Draconic Ancestry for Brass points to fire. (SRD, p. 45)
The subclass then grants the Elemental Affinity feature at 6th level, which boosts damage for spells of that damage type (and lets you spend a sorcery point to gain resistance to that damage type for an hour):
You add your Charisma modifier to one damage roll for a fire spell.
From your comment:
No limit. It is on each fire spell that you cast.
Example: if you cast the cantrip fire bolt ten times during a few combats, on each casting you get the bonus.
