hello,
I ran over this same problem on Ubuntu 14.04

As per
https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/wiki/Common-build-problems

"Python 3.7.0 will not compile on RHEL6 because it requires OpenSSL 1.0.2 or 1.1 and RHEL6 provides 1.0.1e"

openssl version confirms this to be the case on Ubuntu 14.04

"On Ubuntu 14.04 on Dreamhost, an extra flag is required for Python 3.7+:
First, follow these instructions: https://help.dreamhost.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001435926-Installing-OpenSSL-locally-under-your-username"

then I ran: 
./configure --with-ensurepip=yes CFLAGS="-I$HOME/openssl/include" LDFLAGS="-L$HOME/openssl/lib"

after that python3.7 was correct

hope that helps, kind regards
Joaquin
