Adjustment layers calculate or show you only preview how image will look if you decide to export it with applied adjustment. When using Adjustment layers you are not working with pixels and everything can be changed at any time till image is in PSD format (or layered TIFF). You can change Adjustment later or even delete it without affecting pixels in image in other words same as nothing was happen.

Adjusment layers are effect layers that affect all layers below them. Artists like using them because they can easily be toggled On or Off, unlike regular filters/adjustments (with the exception ones applied to smart objects) that permanently change the image. However, they are not always a good substitute for filters because they affect all layers below, making them undesirable if you only wish to affect a single element.

Why should you used adjustment layer to change color in photoshop?

You don't need to use an adjustment layer, an adjustment layer will effect any layers that are under that layer, and you may not want to affect all layers, just one. An adjustment layer is good for non-destructive editing, because it can be easily turned on or off, or deleted without making any permanent changes to the pixels of the lower layers. You can also mask out certain parts of the adjustment layer by adding a layer mask so that it will only affect a selected area, but remember, it will still affect all layers under the first one, which may not be preferable if the layers have any transparency.
