Benzene is mostly neutral in nature when subjected to pH. Aniline gets protonated easily in acidic medium so it acts as a pretty good base (by Bronsted-Lowry definition). Phenol is acidic, due to resonance the O-H bond often becomes weak and it is a proton donor (acid by Bronsted-Lowry definition).

Aniline exhibits the strongest basic behaviour in an acidic medium
