what does it mean by "/usr prefix"?
/usr stands for "unix system resources".
That is at best a back-formation. The directory name "/usr" is historical and goes back at least to version 7 Unix from Bell Labs and is simply a classic Unix three-letter abbreviation for "user." At the time, it was where user's home directories conventionally resided.
