I think the key is here:

,----[ C-h f search-backward-regexp RET ]
| [...]
| Search backward from point for match for regular expression REGEXP.
| Set point to the beginning of the match, and return point.
| The match found is the one starting last in the buffer
| and yet ending before the origin of the search.
| [...]
