I absolutely would pass this kind of quiz 100% with any New Testament quote, thanks to having put Life and Truth Dramatized Audio New Testament on in the background literally 24/7 for a few years straight. Also John Rhys-Davies reads Hebrews so well with his classical training and Welsh accent that it's hard not to memorize large parts of it verbatim.

NT would be pretty easy to guess from just about any verse. The hardest part would be placing one of the epistles or determining exactly which gospel a verse came from.

OT is a lot harder simply because of the number of writers and how boring/similar a lot of the writing is. To be successful you'd need to have something pulled from like the pentateuch. Maybe psalms or something like Kings/Chronicles.
