General Questions • 7z compressed and encrypted files, how secure they are?

I use Debian 11 Cinnamon and I compress and encrypt files with the pre installed programs using ''right click>compress'' from the list I select ''7z'', I expand ''other options'' and I enter a password.
Since the program does not specify:

1) What method of encryption it uses? Is it AES-256?

2) How secure is the file created from a brute force attack?
