Which do you enjoy more? Which are you doing better in?
Biology is lots of content, but, at least at my school, people got more 7s in biology SL than physics SL. Do you know the exam data for your school?

I think I would prefer Biology but I am not sure if Physics is considered a stronger choice for uni.

I would go with biology then. Your SL subjects aren't really important/looked at in terms of uni admissions, but the grade that you get will be important, because obviously your offer will specify a minimum total point score. Not doing physics wouldn't at all be a reason for you to not get an offer for economics.
Also if you prefer biology, then you will enjoy studying it, be more motivated etc.
