If we are in train when it is moving with some speed. Then the nature moving opposite to you. Similarly earth rotates west to east then we assumes opposite to it.

Earth rotates from west to east and with respect to the earth we assume the stars move opposite of the earth (east to west).

Take an example of a person(A) in rest if there is another person(B) in a train, B will observe that A is moving in backward direction, however it is the train which is moving in forward direction, same will be the case of this question.
This is the principle of Frame of Reference.

Sun is also a star and in general fact we say that sun rise from east and set from west but actually sun does not move it is stable. Due to revolution and rotation of earth from west to east it seems us moving like other star.

We see stars because of the rotation of earth. The earth rotates from west to east. Consider a point just infront of your eyes in space, you keep seeing that point a turn your head from west to east the point will move from east to west. Same case with earth more accurate than this.
