$ zless /usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/term14.pcf.gz

Between loads of unreadable text, you can recognize precisely this font.

$ dpkg -S /usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/term14.pcf.gz
xfonts-75dpi: /usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/term14.pcf.gz

So the font belongs to package xfonts-75dpi.

$ dpkg -L xfonts-75dpi

With this command you see all the other fonts belonging to this package,
there are a few hundreds of them.
There is a similar package named xfonts-100dpi.
