I will use the parametric representation of a line
in 3-dimensions using a vector and a point on the line, to solve
this. There could be other ways.
vector AB = 4 i + 6 j + 2 k vector CD = 7 i - 5 j + 0 k
parametric representation of line AB with point A (0, -1, -1) on it :
x = 0 + 4 t , y = -1 + 6 t , z = -1 + 2 t
That of line CD is with point C is,
x = 3 + 7 s y = 9 - 5 s z = 4 + 0 s
Solve these pairs of equations to get t and s.
s = -1 , t = 5/2
Point of intersection is (10, 14, 4)
