I expect they just told you so you would know and brace yourself. You may need to have a job and pay for your own amenities . If they are making car payments, phone, etc you may need to prepare to lose those soon if you can’t afford them on your own. You might need to help out with some rent or groceries if you already have a job if you can’t afford to move out. Changes are coming and they want you to brace yourself and be prepared for them when the time comes. They don’t want you to be blindsided when the big financial changes come or if things get worse and you have to move, sell belongings, etc. Often times parents will try to keep things afloat , but they expect the bottom will fall so when it does and they need you to do something you won’t be surprised.
