when i lost my job last year, i was behind in car payments, and car was repoed, and auctioned off. I recently received a statement from a collection agency saying I owed $7,700. Am I responsible for this?

Without any other facts, the answer is yes, assuming the amount is correct. The lender deducted the amount of the sale to your balance, added the costs of repossession and sale, and you are responsible for the remainder, or the deficiency, of your auto loan.
