Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

All the planets have formed from a mass of spinning particles. As they formed from spinning mass the planets are still spinning due to the conservation of angular momentum. Hence all planets spins about an axis running through it.

All planets spin in counterclockwise direction when viewed from above. Except Venus rotates in anticlockwise direction and Uranus' axis of rotation is titled towards its side.
