When you use iCloud Photos, whatever you do on one device is reflected everywhere. Deleing a photo on the phone delete it in iCloud as well. That’s because iCloud Photos is a syncing service, not off device storage. What you might want to do is download the photos on a computer and then you can safely delete them from the phone and iCloud.
This explains how to download the photos to a computer.
