The only transformation that changes both a figure's orientation and position is a **reflection**.
Reflections flip the figure over a given line, which alters its orientation, and they also change the position of the figure. Rotations change orientation but not position relative to the center of rotation, and translations change position but not orientation. Dilations change the size of the figure but do not affect orientation or position. Therefore, the correct answer is **reflection**.
