You have done 3 mistakes.

1. You cant set campaign like this. Use CampaignMember Object.

2. Never run soql queries inside loops.

2. If you want to set some values to a object when inserting or updating, you can use the before troggers

What all Rizwi said are true and you must modify your trigger other wise you might face some other issues.

But the main reason for the error you got is with the field name you are using for Campaign on Lead.

 

Generally if we need to access standard lookup field on standard object , the api name needs to be appended with "id"

 

so its

 

b.CampaignId=camp.Id;
