Per NFL rules, a quarter cannot end on an accepted penalty. The defense would accept the penalty, the TD would be wiped out, and there would be one more play, an untimed play, that would be the last play of the game.

What if a quarter back has an incomplete pass in their own en zone is it a safety?

No ... an incomplete forward pass in the end zone does not result in a safety. However, if a quarterback is in the end zone and is called for an intentional grounding penalty, the result is a safety. Also, if the offensive team is called for a holding penalty in their end zone the result is a safety regardless of whether the quarterback was in the end zone at the time of the penalty.

When a team scores a touchdown on last play of a half and they holding penalty do they run a play?

It depends if the defending team either accepts or declines the penalty. If they accept it, then they move the ball back 15 yards from where the holding penalty was called, and run another play. If they decline, then they decided to ignore the holding. (they might do this if the offense didn't score. If they were to accept, that would give the offense another chance to score)
