Firefox will continue working on Windows XP. You'll receive the same security updates as users on other versions of Windows.

However, because Microsoft will not be updating windows XP any longer, even though Firefox will be updated, the base operating system your computer runs will be insecure, meaning you can still be hacked. You should begin transitioning to a new, more modern, Operating System (Mac 10.9, Windows 8.1, or a modern version of Linux).
