All the planets in our solar system (including Mars) appear to move very close to the "ecliptic", the line the sun appears to travel in our skies.

That is because all the planets in our solar system formed from the same nebular disk and orbit the sun close to the same plane (imagine our solar system inside a Pizza box with the sun at the center).
