In a scientific point of view certain criteria must be sustained in order for life to exist, it must be able to sustain human life in size and also have the right chemical composition of gas like oxygen, also it must contain water in order for us to survive and desirably some sources of food, without these we would die, it may be possible in some planet for life to exist but we do not know about it yet, so life COULD exist on another planet, it just needs to stick to this criteria and many planets don't so that is why life is less likely.

How does the temperature of the planets vary with the distance from the sun?

The further a planet is from the sun, the less light and heat radiation it gets from the sun leaving it a cooler planet. However, a planet with a gaseous atmosphere is less likely to radiate away the planets heat so it may retain more of the solar heat.
