The reason it is said that the sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west is that it doesn't actually rise or set. From our vantage point, it appears that the sun is moving across the sky when in reality, it is the rotation of our own planet that causes the transition from night to day and so on.

Why is it not correct to say that the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west?
While the Sun appears to rise up from the horizon in the east and go back down below the horizon in the west, it is not actually moving around the Earth. We see the Sun "rise" or "set" because the Earth rotates so that the part we are on turns to face the Sun or face away from the Sun.

What time will Orion rise November 29?
That will depend on where in the world you are. A number of websites, such as HeavensAbove, will allow you to see what the night sky looks like at a certain time and date, from your location. You also have to be clear as to what you mean when you say what time will it rise. It takes it some time to rise, from when the first part of it appears until it is all above the horizon, so you may want to measure your time at when you can see it in full. There are also other problems, like if you can see the horizon. So if you have to wait for it to rise over some other obstacles, it will obviously be later to see it rise in full, than if you have a clear view of the horizon.
Does the sun rise on the left and set on the right?
It spins to the right of the sun. Another viewpoint: The plane of the Sun's equator is tilted by just a few degrees to the plane of the Earth's orbit. So, the Earth revolves around the Sun roughly in the plane containing the Sun's equator. The Earth certainly does not orbit over the Poles of the Sun. Whether Earth orbits to "left or right" depends on the how you look at the orbit. Also, it's better to use the words "clockwise" and "counterclockwise" (anticlockwise). When viewed from above the Earth's North Pole, the Earth revolves around the Sun in a counterclockwise direction.

It is not the Sun that Is moving across the sky, although it does look like it. No it is because Earth's rotation causing it to look as if the Sun was moving and not us.
