The stars and constellation have tilted and are also moving in space.

The location angle of the Earth's tilt relative to the stars and constellations remains the same throughout the year.
The location angle of the Earth's tilt relative to the stars and constellations remains the same throughout the year.

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

The correct choice is:

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

This is because the rotation of the Earth on its axis causes the stars to appear to move across the sky throughout the night, while the Earth's orbit around the Sun causes the position of stars and constellations to change over the course of the year.
