The answer depends on what you consider a 'filter' program. If you consider a filter program to actually limit (or filter out) certain parts of a file then the sort program would not be considered a filter program, but more of a utility program.
If you consider a filter program to be a program that changes the output in some way but gives the same amount of lines of output that are input then you could consider the sort program a filter.
Most people would probably say that the sort utility program is not a filter, but it can be up to some interpretation.

What is a filter in Unix?
A Unix filter is a command pattern that allows the output of one command to be "piped" into the input of the next command. Commands like 'ls' which list a directory are not filters since they only generate output. Filter examples are grep, sed, sort, uniq, awk.
