Can a person with 45 or 48 chromosomes survive?

Someone with 45 chromosomes can survive if the missing chromosome is a sex chromosome. 48 chromosomes would be 2 trisomies...if one was a trisomy of chromosome 21 and the other trisomy involved one of the sex chromosomes this would probably produce a living offspring. Other trisomies tend to have more negative effects and it is unlikely that multiple trisomic individuals would survive.

Can the human population really survive something like an ice age?

Presumably you mean "can the human population survive a glaciation". The human species can, and has survived previous glaciations but in relatively small numbers. The main population will not survive as their food producing land will be covered in ice and there is not enough land near the tropics to hold the full human population.
