Depends on the rights holder. I have a random 43-second clip from Cyberpunk 2077 with some jazz playing in the background uploaded to YouTube. Within minutes of uploading, UMG made a copyright claim on it, meaning that YouTube can show ads on my video despite my channel not being monetized and UMG will get that ad revenue. However, it doesn't actually impact my channel's standing in any way. And I guess a side benefit is that you can actually listen to the full track by clicking the automatically added link in the description. It does allow me to either mute or replace the song if I don't want UMG claiming my video, but most likely it will just completely destroy the audio in the entire video.
