So, if a system is given impulse as input, then natural response would be its output? – j.doe Oct 25 '17 at 09:55

No. Your question just means you misunderstood the link discussion. – jonk Oct 25 '17 at 10:02

Transients respond more impulsively, naturally. – Olin Lathrop Oct 25 '17 at 11:22

Natural response is the zero input response (i.e. response to initial conditions).
Impulse response is (unsurprisingly) the response to a unit impulse - the Laplace Transform of a unit impulse response is the transfer function.
Transient response is a generic term that applies to any time-domain component of a response that decays to a steady state value.
