I've always thought of the arm as being relatively straight, but it should never be locked out at the elbow. The joint should remain soft so that it can flex if absolutely necessary (whether on a quick reaction volley or in dealing with the force of a heavily struck ball on impact).
Any arm motion independent of torso rotation should be made from the shoulder joint with the arm and racquet moving as a single unit.
