There are many question about this topic and all of them has same kind of answer.

With dpkg configuration:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration

With dconf editor:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options "['terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp']"

But recently I installed Ubuntu 17.10 and its environment is GNOME. I tried both ways but none of those are working for me.

Can anybody help?

EDITED:

There is an another method of dontzap. But it is a bug or not available.

Probably you're in a Wayland session. – pomsky Oct 27 '17 at 14:27
Is Ubuntu 17.10 by default goes in Wayland session? – Jahirul Sourav Oct 28 '17 at 04:56
Yes, it's default now. You can switch back to Xorg if you wish: https://askubuntu.com/questions/961304/how-do-you-switch-from-wayland-back-to-xorg-in-ubuntu-17-10 – pomsky Oct 28 '17 at 08:37
