After following all the steps for SSH Key Pair Authentication, Linode is still asking me for Pwd instead of Passphrase (which I have added).
What is the best way to check if SSH Key Pair Authentication is set up properly or not.

What's in your config now? What did you already do? Which steps are you refering to? You rebooted the service I assume?

Check /var/log/auth.log for errors. Most likely your .ssh/authorized_keys has improper permissions.

Thank you, Nuvini/Derfy - it was permissions. Now, the keys are working fine.
Appreciate it.
