If he is emancipated, yes. That means he is totally self-supporting.

If he is self supporting and married. Otherwise he would have to be legally emancipated and he'll be 18 before that process is done.

Not likely, if he went and became a father before he was able to take care of a wife and son. However, in Idaho he would be considered emancipated if he marries the mother.
