How many days does it take Saturn the planet to orbit the sun? How many days does it take Saturn the planet to orbit the sun?
Yes, according to many scientists' theories, the sun is pulling the planets closer to it. JUST KIDDING! No idea really...

Mars and Venus are the closest planets. Their distance varies greatly; read a bit on each, to see how close they can get. When they are on the farther side of their orbit, it may happen that at some particular moment Mercury happens to be closer. By the way, the Moon is not usually considered a planet.
What you are referring to is the eccentricity of the planet's orbit around the sun. Eccentricity of a circular orbit is 0.0, whereas the eccentricity of an extremely elongated orbit is 1.0. So the closer the eccentricity of a planet's orbit is to 1.0, the more elongated is its orbit around the sun. Many extra solar planets have high eccentricities in accordance with their parent stars. In our solar system Mercury ( .20563) and Pluto (.24880766) have the highest eccentric orbits.

Yes. It would collide quicker if it brushed the atmosphere on each orbit.

Many smaller objects cross Eris' orbit, so it does not dominate its orbital path. An object must clear its orbit of other objects to be considered a planet.
It takes Earth 365 and 1/4 days to complete an orbit.
