Answer:

14% probability of obtaining an interview with the next household on the sample list

Step-by-step explanation:

Cooperation rate of 14%

This means that the probability of someone at the contacted household agreeing to be interviewed is 14%, and the probability of a person agreeing to be interviewed in a household is independent of what happened in other households, that is, for each household, there is a 14% probability of obtaining an interview.
