A small P- value , P-value indicates that the results are statistically significant.

P value in Statistics helps to perform hypothesis test and it helps to determine the significance of the results.

A small P- value typically (P<0.05) indicates strong evidence against the null hypothesis so, we reject the null hypothesis, on contrary when P- value is large we cannot reject the null hypothesis.
