It depends on how you'd like it to happen:

If you want it to happen whenever you start a new terminal from a
specific shortcut, you can edit the shortcut and add a command that
launches neofetch before the command that launches the terminal,
putting && between them to make sure that the terminal will
only be launched if neofetch has already been launched.

If you want it to happen no matter how a terminal is opened, your
terminal may have an option in its preferences to allow you to run a
custom command (mine does in Ubuntu MATE). If not, a bit of research
will be in order to find out how your file manager or text editor (or
whatever program opens a terminal for you) launches a terminal and
whether it gives you the ability to configure the command it uses or
not.
