Your parents are your legal guardian until you reach the age of majority, which is 18 in most places. So that means they control where you can live and all that good stuff, in a legal sense.
Realistically, who is going to stop you? You are 17 and probably bigger than your parents. I am not advocating that you should leave because you should try and work things out with your parents, but it is hard to control a 17 year old on a mission.

You have to become emancipated. Read the link at the bottom and it will give you info on how to go about doing this. There are a couple of options.

Not without permission from a court. You could seek status as an "emancipated minor."

Yes, your parents just legally can't throw you out until you are 18. They don't have to support your either.

yes, but you might find that making it on your own is a lot harder than you think.
