No, ls and cp are not aliases on Linux; the aliases which clashed too much with existing Linux commands were removed in PowerShell core, they only still exist on Windows.

    PS /> get-command ls,cp

    CommandType     Name    Source
    -----------     ----    ------
    Application     ls      /bin/ls
    Application     cp      /bin/cp

It's on Windows, so yes, path are displayed with backslashes.
