As for outbound faxes...

From http://hylafax.sourceforge.net/man/hylafax-config.php:

*ModemPriority*
   The scheduling priority to use for a modem. Priority values are in
   the range 0 to 255 with lesser values signifying higher (more
   desirable) priority. The /Hyla//FAX/ scheduler process assigns the
   highest priority modem that is ready for use when scheduling an
   outbound job.

   If multiple available modems in a job's selected *ModemGroup * have
   the same *ModemPriority* value, then the /Hyla//FAX/ scheduler
   assigns jobs to them in a round-robin fashion.


As for incoming faxes, the modem that is used in that will be determined 
by the provider of the lines that are connected to those modems... so 
generally your telephone company or PBX.  Usually they can let you 
choose how calls are allocated to those lines.
