FIR filters are usually designed to be linear-phase (but they don't have to be.) A FIR filter is linear-phase if (and only if) its coefficients are symmetrical around the center coefficient, that is, the first coefficient is the same as the last; the second is the same as the next-to-last, etc.

Why FIR filter is linear?
The FIR filters have a phase response that traces out a straight line. Both of these FIR filters exhibit linear phase [1][2]. This means that those sinusoidal components are given a constant phase shift and that the phase shift is constant relative to each frequency.
Which type of FIR filters have linear phase?
FIR I and FIR II Types
Again, this system has linear phase (the quantity inside the parenthesis is a real quantity) and the phase delay is M/2 samples.
Which has linear phase IIR or FIR filters?
FIR can have a linear phase response. That means that the phase is a linear function of the frequency. This property occurs when the FIR filters have a symmetric impulse response. In contrast, IIR filters have a non-linear phase response.
