I have an old 80's 35mm film Canon Camera can't remember the model # off hand. Will those old lenses that I used for it work on these new Canon T7 Rebel? null

Any canon “EF lenses” 87 or later will work. Any of the “FD” lenses prior to ‘87 will not work.

NO. I'll assume you're asking about modern lenses. Canon lenses that can auto focus come in 2 mounts. EF & EF-S.

EF mount lenses fit both full frame bodies & crop body cameras (Rebel series, 10D thru 70D & 7D)

Lenses specifically designed for crop bodies ONLY use an EF-S mount due to the concept that the sensor is considerably smaller & therefore the light path through the lens can also be smaller. This allows building smaller & lighter lenses for the crop bodies.

Much older lenses didn't have internal electronics & used another mount.
