Both have masses; therefore they attract one another.
That is not English; that is not physics. Generally speaking, the speed of the satellite and gravity cancel each other. As the satellite slows (friction), gravity wins.
The Earth's only satellite is the Moon.
The sun gravity is stronger
Gravity affects a satellite launch by pulling the satellite towards the Earth during its initial phase of ascent. This requires the rocket to generate enough thrust to overcome gravity in order to reach the desired orbit. Once the satellite is in orbit, gravity continues to affect its trajectory, helping to keep it in orbit around the Earth.

nither it is a natural satellite held in orbit by the earths gravity. Without it we would have no tides.

Whatever goes up and remains within the influence of earths gravity must come down, or circle the earth as a satellite.
No. Gravity is responsible for all 'orbits'. If there were no other body attracting it, the orbiting object would sail off in a straight line.
Gravity is affected by the mass of an object, The greater the mass, the greater the gravity. Apples have gravity, but because they have such a small mass the gravity is tiny, whereas Earth has a huge mass which in turn means that it has a huge and noticeable gravity.
