If you are talking about the planets that orbit our sun, that is called the solar system.
Yes. Earth is one of eight planets in our solar system, all of which are in an orbit around our central star which we call the sun.
Gravitational Pull?

A solar system
It is the planets' orbit.
The Solar System. Multiple solar systems make up Galaxies.
Without the planets orbiting the sun all the planets would be cold and dark
The Sun has such a gigantic mass that it dominates the nearby volume of space.Not all bodies do orbit the Sun; there are comets that get pulled in by the Sun's gravity but then leave the solar system (comest on hyperbolic paths).Many smaller bodies also orbit their parent planets (we then call them moons).What else could the planets orbit around? Part of the definition of a planet is that it orbits the Sun! So planets by definition orbit the Sun! If they did not orbit the Sun they would not be called planets!
