The sentences that have a pronoun reference error are the following ones: 1 and 4. The sentences that have a pronoun agreement error are the following ones: 2, 3 and 5.

Explanation:

The first sentence has a pronoun reference error because it is not clear whether the personal pronoun "he" refers back to Jeff or to the NP "his brother".  You could fix this by using the structure the former/the latter (see a).   Likewise,  sentence 4 also has a pronoun reference error. It is not clear to which NP the pronoun "it" refers. It can't refer back to the NP "the crowd", so it should refer to "rainy soccer".  You could fix this by changing this pronoun for the NP "the game" (see b).

Then, sentence 2, 3 and 5 have pronoun agreement error because they all make use of singular they.  Singular they is the use of the pronoun "they" or any of derivative forms (them, their, theirs, themselves) as a gender-neutral singular pronoun. This use particularly occurs with an unspecified antecedent. In order to fix this error, you could use the specific personal pronouns his/her (see c, d, and e). What is more, in sentence 5 you should take into account that the pronoun refers to both the Smiths and Mr. Paulson. So you should use the singular personal pronoun "his" since Mr. Paulson is the closest NP to the pronoun.

a) After Jeff talked to his brother about the project, the former/the latter went home.

b) The crowd sat through two hours of rainy soccer. The game ended in a tie.

c) Every frugal shopper counts his/her coupons before they shop. Also,  every frugal shopper counts the coupons before they shop.

d) Someone decided to leave his/her mess behind for others to clean up. Also, someone decided to leave a mess behind for others to clean up.

e) Neither the Smiths nor Mr. Paulson remembered to purchase his hunting license. Also, neither the Smiths nor Mr. Paulson remembered to purchase the hunting license.
