Saturation region is one in which the output current is independent of the input and remains almost constant. Hence, MOSFETs in saturation are modeled as current sources( whose current is independent of voltage across it)
Saturation region(on) and Cut off region(off).
For switching applications transistor is biased to operate in the saturation or cutoff region. Transistor in cutoff region will act as an open switching whereas in saturation will act as a closed switch.

Emitter, Collector and Base cutoff region, saturation region, and liner region
The output current of a transistor is controlled by the current in the 'base' input: Increasing the control current will increase the output current in a more or less linear fashion. In the saturation region, this is no longer true: The transistor is nearing the limits of how much current it can conduct, so increasing the control current further has little or no effect. When using a transistor as an amplifier, you want to stay away from the saturation region as it would distort the signal you are amplifying. When using a transistor as an on/off switch, as in digital circuits, being in the saturated region is 'on' and a normal mode of operation.

Reverse saturation current of germanium diodeThe current that exists under reverse bias conditions is called the reverse saturation current. Reverse saturation current of the germanium diode is typically 1 micro ampere or 10-6 a.At a fixed temperature, the reverse saturation current of a diode increases with increase in applied reverse bias. In reverse bias region the reverse saturation current also varies with the temperature.
In saturation region transistor acts as a non linear device i.e, there is no linear relation between input and output because in saturation region output does not change for variation in input. Whereas in other operating mode transistor acts as a linear device.
In the linear region, the transistor has an almost linear I versus V curve, which means that as you increase drain-source voltage, current changes proportionally, e.g. to a loose approximation, the FET behaves like a resistor, whose resistance is set by the gate-source voltage. In the saturation region, the I vs V curve looks like a horizontal line (almost) so it acts like more like a switch (neither of these analogies is exact, but they give the general idea).
The dew point is a saturation point, but a saturation point may not be a dew point. That is, a saturation point has a broader definition -- more general application. Sometimes you can interchange the terms without confusing the reader. =================================
