Default New Gauges Installed: Question, should my Oil Temp gauge be this low when powered but not hooked up?

My question being, should the bar go up to the 140 line when i turn the car on or is it okay that it only goes up that far?

I don't have the sender line hooked up yet btw, it is just wrapped up and secured in the engine bay.
