The correct response is:

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

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