To find the initial value of the linear function, we can use the point-slope form of a linear equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where (x1, y1) is the given point (14, 3) and m is the rate of change (-7).

Plugging in the values, we get:

y - 3 = -7(x - 14)

y - 3 = -7x + 98

y = -7x + 101

Comparing this equation with the standard form of a linear equation y = mx + b, we see that the initial value (y-intercept) is b = 101.

Therefore, the initial value of the linear function is 101.
