In ascending order, the axis of rotation of all major bodies in our solar system is as follows:
Mercury ~0.01
Moon 1.5424
Jupiter 3.13
Ceres ~4
Sun 7.25 (to the Ecliptic)
Earth 23.439281
Mars 25.19
Saturn 26.73
Neptune 28.32
Uranus 97.77
Pluto 119.61
Venus 177.4
Thus Venus is by far the largest. It should be noted that Venus rotates around its axis in the opposite direction to Earth and that its north pole points downward relative to Earth. If this weren't a factor then its tilt would only be 2.6 degrees (180 - 177.4), and therefore Uranus, which rotates almost on its side, would have the greatest tilt.
Uranus and Neptune are the two jovian planets with magnetic field tilts that are not aligned with their rotation poles. Uranus' magnetic field is tilted by 59 degrees, while Neptune's magnetic field is tilted by 47 degrees.
Uranus is probably what you mean.
No, Neptune axis of rotation, like that of Earth is basically at right angles to the plane of the ecliptic (the plane in which the planets rotate round the sun). It is Uranus that has a unique configuration among the planets because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane the ecliptic, (i.e. its north and south poles lie where most other planets have their equators).
Jupiter's axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of approximately 3.13 degrees relative to its orbit around the Sun. This tilt is relatively small compared to other planets in our solar system.
No, Jupiter does not have a very tilted axis like some other planets in our solar system. Jupiter's axis is only tilted by about 3 degrees, which is very close to being perpendicular to its orbit around the Sun.
Uranus and Neptune are the two jovian planets with magnetic field tilts that are not aligned with their rotation poles. Uranus' magnetic field is tilted by 59 degrees, while Neptune's magnetic field is tilted by 47 degrees.

neptune some other planets tilt to but neptune tilt alot
Each of the eight planets orbits around the sun; Mercury (the smallest), Venus (the hottest), Earth (our planet), Mars (the red planet), Jupiter (the largest), Saturn (the one with rings), Uranus (the green one tilted on its side that you have to be careful how you pronounce), and Neptune (the furthest).
The statement is accurate as the sun is not directly over the equator of any of the planets except for Uranus. Uranus is unique in its rotation as it is tilted on its side, so at certain points in its orbit, the sun is nearly directly over its equator.
In comparing the angles between the planets' rotational axes and their orbital planes, Jupiter deviates from the perpendicular by only 3.13°. Only two planets have less tilt: Mercury and Venus (Venus rotates backwards; it's called a retrograde rotation).
Astronomers believe Triton may have been a planet that was captured by Neptune because it orbits in the opposite direction of Neptune's rotation and is tilted compared to the planet's other moons. This suggests it did not form in place with the other moons of Neptune, but rather was captured later in the planet's history.
Uranus rotates on its side as seen from Earth. Its axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of approximately 98 degrees, causing it to appear as though it is rotating on its side compared to most other planets in our solar system.
