If according to energy-mass equivalence, an object's mass increase as its energy increases too, then the amount of energy a particle possesses determines its interaction with the Higgs Field. How is this right or wrong?
It does not. The equivalence is true for particles or systems in their rest frame only.Quds Akbar said:If according to energy-mass equivalence, an object's mass increase as its energy increases too

Energy-mass equivalence is the concept that energy and mass are two forms of the same thing and can be converted into each other through Einstein's famous equation, E=mc^2. This means that a small amount of mass can be converted into a large amount of energy, and vice versa.
The Higgs field is a theoretical field that pervades all of space and gives particles their mass. It is responsible for the existence of the Higgs boson, also known as the "God particle," which was discovered in 2012 at the Large Hadron Collider.
The Higgs field interacts with energy and mass through a process called the Higgs mechanism. As particles move through the Higgs field, they interact with the Higgs boson and acquire mass. Without this interaction, particles would be massless and the universe would look very different.
Energy-mass equivalence and the Higgs field are essential concepts in modern physics and have greatly expanded our understanding of the universe. They help explain the relationship between energy and mass, and how particles acquire their mass. Additionally, the discovery of the Higgs boson has confirmed the validity of the Standard Model of particle physics.
Energy-mass equivalence and the Higgs field are related because the Higgs field is responsible for giving particles their mass, and thus plays a role in the conversion of energy and mass. Without the Higgs field, energy and mass would not be equivalent, and the universe would look very different.
