"What is a constellation" - A visible group of stars, all in the same direction, that seem (to us) to form some picture.

"Are all the stars in the constellation the same distance" - No, they just happen to be in the same direction.

"Why do groups of stars continue to stay together" - They are extremely far away. They do move, but the distances are enormous, and it takes a while (say, a few thousands of years in the usual case) before we notice a movement.
