Ist the 2038 year Problem solved in CentOS 7.5 64 bit Version


If you define the problem as the limitations of system clock based on a 32-bit representation of seconds relative to the epoch, then the answer is "yes."  The Linux kernel uses a 64-bit clock on 64-bit systems.

Any given application may store dates in a format of its own choosing, though, so its possible that applications running on CentOS 7 could still have a problem.

It's probably easier and faster to simply set the system clock of a test host to the year 2040 and test the system and its applications than it is to ask for opinions, though.
