Pluto is closer than Neptune at perihelion. At aphelion its orbit is approximately 50 AU. If we use that as the radius of the solar system, then our solar system is 100 AU across.
In terms of light, it takes 8.3 minutes for sunlight to strike earth. The solar system's diameter would therefore be 830 light minutes, or 13.8 hours. Our solar system extends far beyond Pluto, however. Eris is nearly 100 AU at aphelion. As the largest known Kuiper belt object (bigger than Pluto/Charon), it is still MUCH closer than any Oort Cloud object.
The sun is in front of the solar system and Pluto is at the far end of the Solar system.
Pluto is a dwarf planet that can be found on the outermost area of our solar system, the farthest away from the Sun.
The Sun.
Pluto is about 5,913 million km from the sun (on average). Earth is about 150 million km from the sun. Earth is about 5,763 million km from Pluto.
Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun in our solar system.
Pluto is located at around 40 AU from the Sun.

a solar system consists of a sun and the celestial objects bound to it by gravity. Our Earth is part of a solar system along with 7 other planets that orbits the sun. (pluto is no longer considered a planet, sorry pluto).
Yes, it hasn't been left behind! Pluto orbits the sun, so as the sun moves, Pluto goes with it.

Because they are the farthest from the sun.
Yes. Pluto may no longer be considered a major planet but it is still part of the Solar System! The Solar System includes the Sun, planets, dwarf planets (including Pluto), moons, asteroids, comets, centaurs, trans-Neptunian objects and interplanetary dust particles amongst other things: basically the Sun and everything that orbits around it. Pluto orbits the Sun, so it's still part of the Solar System.
