Everything in the solar system - in fact, everything we know of in the universe - is spinning. The Sun spins the way it does because the entire planetary nebula that formed the Sun, the planets and the whole solar system was all spinning.

That's why everything in our solar system spins the SAME WAY - counterclockwise. (Except Venus and Neptune.)

Does the sun have an axis?

Anything that rotates has an imaginary line that it appears to rotate around, and that's what's called the "axis". Since the sun definitely rotates, there's an imaginary line through it that it seems to rotate around, and it's completely proper to refer to that imaginary line as the sun's axis.
