Pluto is on the outside of the asteroid belt, and is VERY far away from it.
Outside.
Neptune is located beyond the asteroid belt as are all the gas giants. In fact, as of Pluto's demotion, Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun.

From the sun it goes Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, ASTEROID belt, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto (although no longer classed as a planet). So the earth is inside the orbit of the asteroid belt.
The outer planets, which is outside of the asteroid belt. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and (Optional) Pluto.
Pluto is no longer classified as a planet, but it was formerly considered an outer planet because it is beyond the asteroid belt.

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Maybe Pluto. These are called the outerplanets because they are outside the asteroid belt.

The largest asteroid is far smaller the Pluto. The largest asteroid in our solar system is Ceres, with a diameter of about 900 kilometers. Pluto has a diameter of about 2,300 kilometers.

Current thinking is that the Asteroid Belt never constituted a single terrestrial body in the past; for whatever reason, there was not enough mass in the Belt for the matter there to accrete into a single body, as happened in the case of Earth or Mars, e.g.
