This another one:

a) Let's have a try, shall we?
b) Let's have a try, won't you?

My choice is under a, shall we? Is it correct? Please explain why is it correct and if wrong why is it wrong also?

I agree with your choice again. The reason is, I think, because 'Let's have a try' = 'Let us have a try', which is in accordance with 'we' not 'you'.

Yes, I agree with "shall we" too. I heard it many times in the same context.
(like let's have a beer, shall we? ;) )
