All the Planets, dwarf planets, comets and asteroids in the Solar System are natural satellites of the Sun. A natural satellite is something which orbits a parent body and is not made by man. Hence Earth is a natural satellite of the Sun, and the Moon is a natural satellite of the Earth. The Moon is not a satellite of the Sun because it orbits the Earth. The ISS and what people call satellites are technically 'artificial satellites' because they are made by people.

Why do planets and satellites orbit the sun?

Planets and satellites orbit the sun due to the gravitational pull of the sun. This gravitational force keeps them in their respective orbits as they move through space. The balance between the inertia of the planets/satellites and the gravitational force of the sun results in stable orbits.
