Apsis
A planet's maximum distance from the Sun is known as its aphelion. This point occurs when the planet is at the farthest point in its elliptical orbit around the Sun. The distance between the planet and the Sun is greatest at aphelion.
The farthest planet from the sun is Pluto. Pluto isn't a planet anymore because the scientists in 2006 thought the "planet" was so small that they had to descend it down to a dwarf planet. That is all I know, sorry!! I may be wrong so you can improve my answer :P.
Two planets are at their greatest separation when they are on opposite sides of the Sun. When a planet is at its greatest separation from the Earth the planet is said to be at superior conjunction. It cannot be seen until it has separated out from the Sun, which usually takes a few weeks at least.
Distance from Earth varies from 36 million miles (nearest planet after Venus) to over 250 million miles. Proportionately, this six-fold distance variation is the greatest of any planet.
At any given distance, the object with the greatest mass also has the greatest gravitational force. That's the Sun. The Sun also has the largest surface gravity.
Within our Solar System, Neptune, the furthest planet from the Sun has the greatest distance to travel.
Aphelion is the point in a planet's orbit where it is farthest from the sun. This is when the planet is at its greatest distance from the sun in its orbital path.

That point is called aphelion. The related term for an object orbiting around a planet or other non-sun object is apogee.

Its just what some people think. Its an opinion. Its not lying, and saying that it isn't the greatest isn't lying either.
No, the greatest difference in seasons occurs on a planet with a more elliptical orbit, where the distance from the sun varies significantly. This leads to more extreme temperature changes and more pronounced seasons.
