This question is a bit flakey, in the classic model of circular orbits Venus has an orbit that i most closest to Earths orbit.

But in actuallity Mercury is the planet that spends most time closest to Earth than any of the others

I think the general assumption is that if all the planets were on the same side of the sun, the planet which is closest to Earth would be Venus. You're correct that if you take the average distance over full orbits of all the planets then Mercury wins, but that is somewhat esoteric as far as general knowledge questions go, and would need a qualifier such as "on average" in the question to specify that answer.

Also, at this moment in time the answer to the question, which planet is closest to Earth, is Mercury.

I agree they probably want the Answer "Venus", but it's not actually true
