To solve the expression \((39 \cdot 12)^2 - (2 - 3)^3\), we will break it down into steps.

1. **Calculate \(39 \cdot 12\)**:
\[
39 \cdot 12 = 468
\]

2. **Calculate \((39 \cdot 12)^2\)**:
\[
(468)^2 = 219024
\]

3. **Calculate \(2 - 3\)**:
\[
2 - 3 = -1
\]

4. **Calculate \((2 - 3)^3\)**:
\[
(-1)^3 = -1
\]

5. **Combine the results**:
\[
219024 - (-1) = 219024 + 1 = 219025
\]

Now, let's review the options provided:

17, 15, 7, 9

Since none of these match the calculated result of 219025, it seems there might have been a misunderstanding in the provided options or the steps. The calculations performed above are correct.
