It is a 2.5% credit spread over the 10 year treasury. This means that the bond giving you that particular yield provides you a risk-adjusted return, as determined by the market, to be 2.5% higher than a 10 year treasury. 3 month or in this case 10 year treasuries are conventionally seen as investments with no risk of default.
No risk of default does not mean no risk: there is still duration, market risk, etc.
Currently some people might refute this due to the ever rising government debt in the US (and other countries).

Can the yield on a 3-year treasury bond exceed the yield on a 10-year treasury bond?
Yes, three different situations that I can think of: The 3-year and 10-year notes were issued on the same day, then the yield curve was inverted and short term rates were higher than long term rates. If the 3-year and 10-year notes were issued at different times, at the time the 3-year treasury note was issued, prevailing 3-year interest rates were higher than the 10-year rates at the time the 10-year was issued. If for some reason, the market vastly prefers 10-year terms over 3-year terms, and bids up the price of 10-year notes much higher than 3-year notes. This would depress the yield on 10-year notes, possibly below that of 3-year notes.

There is no 15 year treasury. There is a 10 and a 20 year. You are looking at a 15to 16 % increase based on the total of the interest rates in 2009. Maybe by 2011 you will then find some better interest rates for your 15 year treasury bond.
