Signature fields, because they are fields (which are in turn annotations) are ALWAYS associated with a page.

Conforming readers shall treat such signatures as not visible. Conforming readers shall also treat signatures as not visible if either the Hidden bit or the NoView bit of the F entry is true. <<< Additionally there is the case of signature fields not associated with a page in any way.
