"Current releases of Eclipse require Java 11 JRE/JDK or newer. "
Does that mean that I cannot write Java 7 code?

No, it only means exactly what it says, that Eclipse itself requires at least Java 11 to run
it. The version you compile your own code against, and the version you use to run it, can
be 1.7 without issue. That's best done if you actually have a Java 1.7 installed and runnable,
of course.
