Since this one is from yum install it’s very simple to just change the config files of squid and logrotate.
If you need more assistance let me know.

How did you installed squid on CentOS 7?
From my packages or the OS default or self compiled or another source?

Oops,
The next is the file: /etc/logrotate.d/squid
##START
/var/log/squid/*.log {

rotate 5

notifempty
missingok

postrotate
# Asks squid to reopen its logs. (logfile_rotate 0 is set in squid.conf)
# errors redirected to make it silent if squid is not running
/usr/sbin/squid -k rotate 2>/dev/null
# Wait a little to allow Squid to catch up before the logs is compressed
sleep 1
endscript
}
##END
So you need to change the rotate to 92+ and also change the squid number of logs to the same number.
Let me know if you it’s helpful.

in fact, it does not.
I guess you are supposed to keep 3 months of logs, which mean, you always
need to have 3 months of logs available.
Each day, you can delete log files over 3 months old.
If you rotated lof once in 3 months, you would have single file with 3
months of logs in it, and could remove it 3 months after rotating, when
first logs would be 6 months old.
As we already told you, rotate daily and remove old logs after 92 days.
and use logrotate config.
