In rabbits, black hair is dominant (B) over brown hair(b). Short hair is dominant(S) over short hair (s). What is the F1 Phenotypic ratio from a cross with a homozygous black long hair rabbit to a brown homozygous short? What is the F2 ratio?

you mean short hair is dominant over long hair?

F1 will all be BbSs because BBss x bbSS

F2; you mean backcrossing F1?
If it is, BbSs x BbSs; you get 4 kinds of combination for the gametes, BS, Bs, bS and bs.. just do a dihybrid cross and you can get the answer.

what you wrote is not backcrossing, that would be BbSs x BBss and BbSs x bbSS ;)
but I think s/he wanted the cross you wrote.

Cis or trans? That's what matters.

lol
btw way what is such a cross called...
had it been in plants we refer to it as self pollinated plants but again i think that ainnt the right term for such crosses thats just refering to plant being pollinated by itself but not by even those other plats that have the same genotype atleast for the characteristic under consideration.
it isn't what you do that matters but it is how you do it
