yes
No. Earth's orbit is NOT tilted. Earth orbits the Sun in the same plane as the rest of the planets. What IS tilted is Earth's axis of spin (as compared to the plane of its orbit), It is this tilt of this axis that causes the seasons as Earth makes its annual orbit of the Sun.
Uranus is has an orbit that is tilted significantly more than the other planets. Uranus is basically tilted on it's side during orbit.
Planets orbit stars.
Tilted as compared to what? The only comparison that actually makes any difference is that the Earth's axis of rotation is "tilted" at about 23.5 degrees compared to the ecliptic, which is the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun. This "axial tilt" causes the seasons.

Pluto has a tilted orbit (compared with the average plane of the orbits of the other planets). Also, Pluto would be considered a "terrestrial planet", but it is not now defined as a planet. It's just called a "dwarf planet" now.
All planets have tilted axes. But the axis of Uranus is tilted almost by 90 degrees with the plane of its orbit making it look like it is rotating vertically. See related link for a pictorial representation
the earth is not perfectly round, as with most other planets it is an oblate spheroid. Answer: The tilt refers to a tilt in the axis of rotation, compared to a line that is perpendicular to the Ecliptic (the plane of Earth's orbit around the Sun).
extra solar planets are not bright compared to the stars they orbit
None of the planets orbit the sun perfectly in a circle, there is a degree of deviation from this perfect circle called eccentricity. The higher the eccentricity (more more the eccentric the orbit is) the further away from this perfect circle the orbit is. The planet that deviates most from a perfect circle, having the highest eccentricity, is Neptune. Neptune also has the highest axial tilt, tilted over onto its side as it orbits the sun.
neptune some other planets tilt to but neptune tilt alot

No. Planets orbit suns, while moons orbit planets. Planets do not orbit planets.
