What is the inputoutput phase relationship of common emitter common base and emitter follower amplifiers?

Answer:
Common emitter is the only transistor configuration that has an 180 degree phase difference between input and output. Common base and common collector outputs are in phase with the input.

***********************************

That is incorrect.

The output of the common emitter is inverted, there is no phase shift.
