Given, 'a' is a natural number
$$7a^2+7a=7a\left(a+1\right) = 7k$$
$$=$$> $$7a^2+7a$$ is always divisible by 7
Since a is a natural number,
When a is odd then a+1 is even
When a is even then a+1 is odd
$$\therefore\ a\left(a+1\right)$$ is always even
Let $$\ a\left(a+1\right)=2p$$
$$=$$> $$7a^2+7a=7a\left(a+1\right)=7\left(2p\right)=14p$$
$$=$$> $$7a^2+7a$$ is always divisible by 14
$$\therefore\ $$ $$7a^2+7a$$ is always divisible by both 7 and 14
Hence, the correct answer is Option C
