Time zones are related to the earths rotation because the sun hits the earth at different times thus making the sun set and rise and the same time Ex: Chicago and Denver Colorado have different time zones but if the sun sets at 7:00 in Chicago you want it to be at the same time (7:00) in Denver. Even though we know that the sun cant hit the whole world with the same amount of energy at the same time.

How Does the tilt of earths axis affect the number of daylight hours and the temperature of a location on earths?

If the Earth's axis was vertical - every point on its surface would have the same length of day and night, no matter what time of year it was. The tilt of the axis (to about 11 degrees) means that, as the Earth rotates, and travels around the sun, the length of day shortens and lengthens throughout the year.

Is this true or false the length of a planet's year is determined by how fast it spins?

False, the speed it spins on it's axis determinds the length of day. The speed it rotates the sun determinds the length of it's year.
