Earth is 1 AU from the sun. Saturn is 9.5 AU from the sun. The sun is always closer to the earth than Saturn. When the earth and Saturn are on the same side of the sun, the difference between them is 8.5 AU. When they are on opposite sides, the distance is 10.5 AU. Saturn always ranges from 8.5 to 10.5 AU from the earth, whereas the sun is never more than 1 AU away.

Uranus and Neptune can both be closer to Saturn than to Earth. It depends where the planets are in their orbits.

Jupiter, Mars, Venus and Mercury are all closer to the Earth than Saturn.

If the question means "closer to Saturn than Earth is" then we can get a different answer.

The minimum distance between Saturn and Uranus is slightly less than the maximum distance between Saturn and Earth.

In those circumstances Uranus could be closer to Saturn than Earth is.

(Neptune can never be closer to Saturn than Earth is.)
