Yes, these are hyperlinks within the open ebook. They are identical to hyperlinks on a web page, except that only links local to the file are allowed. See the attached example, which is on an EZ Reader Basic, I think in a MOBI ebook. This page is part of an internal table of contents, implemented as a set of hyperlinks (which is why they are underlined). When I select "Follow link" from the menu, all the links on the current page have a number associated with them and I type in the number I want to follow. Note that you also need a way to go back after reading the link. For MOBI, this is the "backwards" menu item.
Some ebook formats have special syntax for a TOC and footnotes, but hyperlinks can be used for these operations and for other things - and are required for ePub conformance.
