Why lossy compression is used for JPEG image?

The JPEG format was specifically designed to minimize the size of the file beyond what other formats were able to do at that time (for example BMP RLE or GIF LZW). In order to achieve it, it was decided to accept minor degradation of the image quality - with other words the compression is lossy. For more details about how the JPEG format compares to other image formats, please see the related question.

During JPEG compression some data was discarded. Why it does not affect the overall quality of an image?

It does but not in a way that is visible to the eye as it's a reasonbly . What format is the original in? Formats such as GIF are high-compression "lossy" formats so the compression is more obvious. If you do small scale editing you'll notice the quality dropout as the image will appear blurred and then just pixels at a higher zoom. Then it's a headache.

There are two types of compression which describe how they affect images:"Lossy" compressionThis type of compression reduces the size of the image by removing some data from it. This generally cause, effect the quality of the image, which mean it will reduce your image quality."Lossless" compressionThis type of compression reduces the size of the image by changing the way in which the data is stored.
