I presume you mean a "digital DSLR" photo, as a smart phone photo is digital too. It all depends on megapixels. The more you have, the more info you can afford to lose when you resize. Resizing is a complex process that involves pixel-by-pixel comparisons to see what can be tossed overboard and not lose color or resolution information. Most phones simply don't have the same MP count, nor do they have sensors dedicated to capturing image information with the same technical prowess as a 12-to-20mp DSLR.

Digital Cameras Make Photo Resizing Simple?

After you have taken a fantastic vacation, or celebrated a holiday with family members, getting your photographs from the camera onto photo paper is a priority. Occasionally, while going through the resulting photos from these events, there is a special shot, that you know you must have enlarged. If you use a digital camera, photo resizing efforts will come out with a much higher quality, if your camera is set to take the highest quality photos that it can possibly take. Although this takes up mores space on your memory card, the resulting photograph will be well worth it, especially if you are considering a photo enlargement.

How can one prevent digital image quality from degrading while doing photo resizing?

Unfortunately, it is impossible to "add resolution" to a low resolution image to get a high quality high resolution image. You might get slightly better results by making sure the bigger size is some multiple (2 or 3 times as big, for example) of the original size, but there is not very much that can be done.
