If you mean the new item dialog when adding an item to the list then you will need to modify this page to get the behavior you are looking for. With a lookup column SharePoint has no way of knowing what should be the default unless you tell it.

Although this is for 2010 it should give you the idea for what needs to occur in 2007.

Your requirement is to have a Cascading drop down, Isn't it? unfortunately SharePoint doesn't suport that :-(.

But you can achieve using Jquery. Here is the post to help you.
