Any mod that affects monster will affect all monsters on the map of any rarity including the map boss. It even affects things such as rogue exiles and invasion bosses. A similar question was asked on the forums and Gary_GGG simply responded

It affects all monsters on the map.

My personal experience is from fighting the Palace map version of Dominus with the "monsters have X% increased move, attack and cast speed" mod, which made it significantly harder to dodge his touch of god attack (and also why I remember it so well). Observing mods like speed are much easier to observe than mods you can't look at such as increased health or damage.
