Many asteroids have an eccentric orbit, that is, the orbit's ellipse is very stretched. Pluto is just one of many planetoids with this characteristic.
Pluto's unusual orbit causes it to travel inside Neptune's orbit.
The planet with an orbit that intersects the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto is Neptune. Neptune, the eighth and farthest known planet from the Sun in the Solar System, has an orbit that crosses Pluto's orbit due to its elliptical path around the Sun. This orbital relationship between Neptune and Pluto is one of the factors that led to Pluto's reclassification as a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union.
No, Neptune and Pluto do not have the same orbit. Neptune orbits the Sun in a nearly circular path close to the plane of the Solar System, while Pluto has a more elliptical and inclined orbit that is skewed compared to the other planets. Additionally, Neptune's orbit is further from the Sun compared to Pluto's orbit.
Pluto's orbit is more elliptical than Neptune's and at times it can come closer to the sun than Neptune. However, overall, Neptune is much closer to the sun in its average distance from the sun compared to Pluto.
Astronomers now believe that Pluto's effect on Neptune's orbit is negligible and has no significant impact. Despite initial speculation, further studies have shown that Pluto's mass is too small to have a measurable effect on Neptune's orbit.

Pluto's orbit sometimes carries inside the orbit of Neptune. One time, Pluto was stuck in Neptune's orbit for around 20 years.
Pluto's orbit passes inside the orbit of Neptune.
Since Pluto has a highly elliptical orbit, it can be between the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, or it can be beyond the orbit of Neptune.
Neptune's orbit is more like Pluto's orbit, slightly tilted.

Additionally, Neptune's orbit is further from the Sun compared to Pluto's orbit.
Neptune's place in orbit is relatively after Uranus's orbit. It being the eighth and final planet in our solar system (Pluto is not a planet), Neptune crosses with Pluto in the orbit making it the ninth planet until Pluto was kicked out.
62 moons orbit Saturn, 67 orbit Jupiter, 5 orbit Pluto, 14 orbit Neptune, and 27 orbit Uranus.

Pluto's orbit DOES NOT overlap the orbit of the asteroid Ceres. But it does overlap the orbit of the planet neptune
