UTG player is a typical shortstack donk, BB just finished his first orbit and hasn't been active. Is the flop reraise good?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Hero (SB) ($10.05)
BB ($10)
UTG ($1.30)
MP ($11.15)
CO ($13.50)
Button ($34.25)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 7, 10
UTG calls $0.10, 3 folds, Hero calls $0.05, BB checks

Flop: ($0.30) 10, 7, 8 (3 players)
Hero bets $0.30, BB calls $0.30, UTG raises to $1.20 (All-In), Hero raises to $3.60
