There is only ONE type of Asteroid that is considered as a Satellite. They are called MOONS.

Not really... Most pursue their own orbit around the sun; in that respect, they'd be 'satellites of the sun', but usually we consider a 'satellite' as a body that orbits a planet.

Asteroids are natural satellites, but of the Sun not the Earth.
