Yes, the Moon orbits the Earth in an "anticlockwise" or "counterclockwise" direction.
That direction is when viewed from above the Earth's North Pole.
the moon travels from west to east in its orbit
The moon orbits Earth.
If you were in space, hovering high above the north pole, looking down upon Earth, you would observe the earth revolving about its axis (rotating) in counter-clockwise direction. The moon orbits the earth also in a counter-clockwise direction, and once each orbit, the moon revolves around its own axis, also in a counter-clockwise direction.
The moon rotates in the same direction as the earth, counterclockwise (anticlockwise) when viewed from above the north pole. One rotation of the moon takes the same time as one revolution around the earth, so the same side of the moon is always facing the earth.
This is called its orbit. Strictly, the moon and the earth both orbit their common centre of mass. The path of the moon around Earth is elliptical orbit. It takes about 29 days to complete one orbit of earth by moon.
The direction of the moon revolution around the earth is from left to right. This is also known as anticlockwise motion.
The direction of the Earth's spin and the direction of the Moon's orbit is the same - counterclockwise

It is anticlockwise (or counterclockwise), moving in the direction opposite to the hands of an ordinary clock. Most planets and moons (earth and its moon included) rotate in this direction as well.
This is called its orbit. Strictly, the moon and the earth both orbit their common centre of mass. The path of the moon around Earth is elliptical orbit. It takes about 29 days to complete one orbit of earth by moon.
When the moon is full, it's "behind" the earth, that is, in the direction opposite the sun. The three bodies are lined up, with the earth in the middle, like this: Sun ---------------------------------------------------------------------------Earth -- Moon
The moon goes in the direction of its orbit
The moon is in constant orbit around the earth, all the time.
Yes. One moon orbit Earth (The moon)
