Howtosignalprocessing
Linear Phase filters are desirable for certain applications because they maintain the shape of the input signal. Signals in the stop-band or transition-band may be severely attenuated but we can still see this effect in the pass-band.

Why is the linear phase important for a signal to be distortion less?
So if the phase is linear then all the frequency components of the signal will undergo the same amount of delay in time-domain which results in shape preservation.
What is meant by linear phase?
In signal processing, linear phase is a property of a filter where the phase response of the filter is a linear function of frequency.
What is phase linearity and how it affects signals?
Linear-phase describes the response of a filter. When a signal goes through a filter, it experiences a time delay or phase shift. In a “perfect” filter, all frequencies should experience the same time delay (known as pure time delay), which preserves the wave shape as much as possible. All filters have phase shift.
What effect does the linear phase have on a signal in the time-domain?
Linear Phase preserves the time-domain shape of a signal
The IIR creates a distortion that changes the shape of the modulated waveform. This distortion is caused by the filtering process itself, and can be explained by looking at the phase response of the filter design. a constant.
