I personally love Lavender (for RP and fandom reasons) and I've always sided with what is written in the book, so to me she lives. That's the last we heard of her, so Amen.
Definitely alive, because a theme of the book is also about "being saved by your supposed enemies", hence it is Hermione who saves Lavender. Or maybe alive because that's what I want to think and the older I get the more I need happy endings, pathetically.
People survive falling off balconies, right?? If there's no mention, and really, a year-mate of H/R/Hr who actually had a significant role in one of the books would definitely score a mention.

As Ron's ex-girlfriend and their year-mate and friend I'm sure JKR would have mentioned her death. Plus, as someone else pointed out, in the book she's feebly stirring versus dead. So yeah, I'm damn sure she's alive, and I like to believe she was alive but seriously wounded in the movie too (though was it her whom Trelawney was covering and declaring dead?).
Odd fact: Lavender Brown is black in the first five movies, then suddenly played by white Jessie Cave in the sixth and seventh. ><
