The interviewers want to know that if you were accepted into Texas Tech University, you would have the support required for your heavy and challenging medical school workload.
Discuss your support system and how your family and friends express their excitement for your career. You can also mention anyone in your family who may have had a similar path in the medical industry.

"My family is incredibly proud of me for attending medical school. My father is especially keen as he also graduated from Texas Tech University. My parents and my older brother live in the area so that I will have a powerful and encouraging support system should I be accepted into Texas Tech University."

If you do not have family who supports your decision, describe how they are unsupportive, but others support you. Hopefully, you will have a robust support system to draw from.
