Why sketch doesn't move with the object?

I have created a sketch on XY plane and create a simple box on the plan.  But when I moved it, why a blue solid outline of the box stayed at where I created the box (see figure attached).  I'm very new to Fusion 360 and not quite understand the concept.

As you use Fusion 360 more and more you will realize the three levels of modeling.  The top level is the Component, the next level, which should be under the component is a Body or Bodies and the last level is the body Sketch.  If these are all in this arrangement, movement of the component makes no difference, all stay together.  If you create them in reverse order, you have the possibility of getting them separated.  You have to have components to build assemblies so just start out right.  Take a look at the Screencast, I try to answer your question and then demonstrate why makin a component should be your objective.
