1. Phil said that they could help us.
Explanation: In reported speech, the verb "say" is changed to "said" and the pronouns are changed to reflect the new subject. In this case, "we" becomes "they" and "you" becomes "us." Also, the tense of the verb "can" changes to "could" as the reported speech is usually shifted to the past.

2. Sam told me that he didn't like that book.
Explanation: Again, "said" is changed to "told," and the pronouns are adjusted accordingly. "I" becomes "he" and "this" becomes "that." The verb "don't" changes to "didn't" as it also shifts to the past tense.

3. She said that they were decorating their Christmas tree.
Explanation: As before, "said" is changed to "said," and the pronoun "she" remains unchanged. However, since the reported speech is still in the present tense, there is no need to change the verb "are" or the possessive pronoun "our." Only the past tense of the verb "decorate" is changed to "were."
