They are not lined up. Once in awhile they DO sort of line up. When they do, this is called a "syzygy." Usually, however, one or more planets are more or less on the opposite side of the sun from the others.

It is a function of the synodic periods of the planets.

Yes and No. They orbit around the sun and one point they all line up in a straight line.

In many cases, there is no point to asking "why" about physical facts. The planets formed; this is how they are.

That's the order in which they were formed

They're not "aligned", but they all do orbit in APPROXIMATLY the same plane (which we call the zodiac).

Which is not a Jovian planet?

Pluto is the only "planet" that isn't a planet. Well I think that the IAU still have not answered the question WHAT MAKES A PLANET A PLANET? Is it a certain size or something? Comment : The IAU have defined a planet. The definition is mainly about size, but it's not simple: 1) The object must be big enough for gravity to have formed it into a (roughly) spherical shape. 2) The object must be by far the largest object in the neighbourhood of its orbit. Pluto qualifies on 1) but fails on 2). Also, Venus and Mercury are sometimes called "morning stars" or "evening stars", but they are planets.


What can be though of as the dividing line between the inner planets and the outer planets?

Mostly their composition. Inner planets are made of heavy solid materials. Outer planets are made of lighter elements, primarily gases. Also, there is the Asteroid Belt, which is between the inner and outer planets.

It has never happened, and never will. The center of the galaxy does not lie in the plane of the ecliptic, so all the planets can never line up pointing that way.
