I have a MS Access query on which the monthly report based. Every time it
takes about 5 minutes. But today it took about 40 minutes to run. The Access
is linked to tables on MS SQL server. What might be the problem?

Network load, other users hammering the SQL/Server instance, load balancing
problems on SQL, inappropriate indexes, different query parameters,
incorrect indexes or dropped indexes on the tables, a problem with the query
design... just for starters. Without knowing more about the situation it's
simply impossible to answer.
