Hey, these are both good phrasal verbs to describe something that is frozen.
Freezing over is used for things such as lakes/water. So I think freezing up would work better for other subjects.
For example- The town is really freezing up.
I hope this helps :)

Freezing up and melting down are usually used figuratively, not to describe actual freezing.
‘Freezing over’ refers to water where the surface freezes first.
If you want to describe very cold temperatures causing things to freeze very quickly, we’d use words like those.
