Step 1: 

On VMware software we config below Network adapter choose NAT (default)

Step 2:

On Window Operation type Run -> CMD -> ipconfig / all
My demo IP Address is 10.0.0.5

Step 3: 

On Linux Operations (VMware) on terminal -> type ipconfig
My demo IP Address is 192.168.233.129

 

Note:
Check on Linux Operation did sshd services setup? (by open terminal type sshd)
If hadn't setup, so you can setup it with

sudo apt-get install openssh-server

Step 4:

After then Telnet from Window to Linux Operations
Run -> CMD -> type Telnet 192.168.233.129 port 22
with command

telnet 192.168.233.129 22

If telnet succeed -> you can connect between Window to Linux too
