Question: He is saying “Has it been [authentically] established that the Prophet ﷺ used to fast during the month of Sha’baan?”

Response: Yes [it has]. [Regarding] the month of Sha’baan, the Prophet ﷺ used to fast a lot during it; so-much-so that he would fast [the entire month] except for a little, i.e. except for a day or two. Therefore, it is befitting for a person to fast a lot during the month of Sha’baan.
