It means that the new version of something will still work with things that the previous version worked with.

For example the PlayStation 2 is somewhat backwards compatible with the PlayStation 1 because you can play Playstaton 1 games on the PlayStation 2. It is not completely compatible however because not all of the PlayStation 1 accessories work with the PlayStation 2.
