When you make a phone call, the antenna’s are used 100% for calling and using data is disabled (or at least, it used to be). Android might thus “pretend” that it is still connected.
Data is definitely usable when you make a VoLTE call. But if you turn data off before the call happens, the data icon on the top quick setting panel where you pull down on the notifications indicates that data is “on”, and attempting to turn it “off” would show a message saying “Unable to turn off data while Advanced Calling is on” Advanced Calling which I assume means VoLTE. So basically its this state where its on, but only for the purposes of VoLTE. If you have data set to on before the call happens, you can look up info while, for example, you talk to a customer service representative.

That used to be the case with 3G and “3.5G”, but with 4G and 5G calls are done over data (VoLTE).
