From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Both directories are in your path, and many distros have /usr/bin as a symlink to /bin or vice versa, so it almost certainly doesn't matter. Also, the location of the shell has no bearing on which shell is used when you log in as root. That's determined by the login shell field for the root user in /etc/passwd, which is most likely set to bash or /bin/sh (which is most likely a symlink to bash) by default.
