The passphrase protects the key in its storage on your local computer.
Even without a passphrase, a key is still better than a password, as it can only be "stolen" if someone has physical access to your computer (or at least some kind of network access to the files on your computer), whereas a password can be brute-forced (or leaked from any number of places in case you re-use passwords).
