When replacing brake lines, wheel cylinders or calipers air will get into the lines because they were taken apart. Usually air gets into the lines before you work on it because the master cylinder got too low on brake fluid letting air into the lines. Also a bad seal on a caliper piston and a brake wheel cylinder will allow air into the lines.
