The best response is:

The Earth’s tilt changes its position relative to the stars and constellations as the Earth rotates and orbits.

This explanation accounts for the apparent movement of stars and constellations across the sky due to both the Earth's rotation on its axis (which causes daily changes in position) and its orbit around the Sun (which causes seasonal changes in position).
