Yes, CTRL-b is the default prefix. The default prefix in screen is CTRL-a, so a LOT of tmux users remap the prefix to match.
Also, CTRL-a is much easier to press, since B is a long way away.
tmux only uses CTRL-b so it won't conflict with screen's shortcut in case you find yourself in a screen session inside a tmux session.
