4 episodes left for this season. Then they take a 4 month break before the next season starts, if the tv execs decide to bring it back.

if it does comeback it probably won't be until August or September ..... That is when the last two seasons have started.....
this article was back in October...
The ongoing plot in Prison Break will be resolved before the second season is out, show creator Paul Scheuring has revealed.
Speaking to Broadcast this week, Scheuring said that it was important that the original story, which centres around Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) being framed for a governmental murder, was not "protracted" longer than necessary.
He added that US broadcast network Fox could still ask for a third season, however, if ratings remain high. The show currently averages between 8 and 9 million viewers in its Monday 8pm timeslot, with particularly strong scores in the coveted 18-49 demographic.
"We have to conceptualise season three now," said Scheuring, but explained that he may not be involved beyond season two.
The writer's exclusive deal with Prison Break producer Twentieth Century Fox expires next April, after which he plans to start writing independent movies. "If I were to say the show's over [after season two], Fox would say... we'll have someone else run the show. That could happen."
The second season airs in the UK on Five from January.

Prison Break back for season three?
By Rodney Ho | Saturday, January 20, 2007, 01:25 PM
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Fox’s drama “Prison Break” was originally intended to wrap up after just two seasons with season one in the actual prison break and season two, the chase.
But the show has done well enough that producers are in talks with Fox to extend a third season. Fox execs wouldn’t say how this plotline could be logically extended once the conspiracy is resolved concerning Lincoln’s false imprisonment.
Peter Liguori, entertainment president for Fox, dangled the possibility Saturday before TV critics in Pasadena without saying he had fully committed to it.
Actors for “Prison Break” at a Fox-sponsored party Saturday night in Pasadena were optimistic the show will get the green light. Wentworth Miller, who plays the intense Michael Scofield, said he has heard plans that could take the show to five seasons.
“I don’t think there’s any doubt season three is going to happen,” said Dominic Purcell, who plays Lincoln Burrows, the brooding brother wrongly imprisoned for the murder of the vice president’s brother. “It’s just a question of what the writers come up with.”
“I have trust our writers are clever enough so if and when they choose to change up our playground, it will work,” Miller said.
Miller said he liked the prison setup season one but prefers the more open fugitive story in season two. In retrospect, “there was that slow click click click up the initial incline before taking off down that hill,” he said. “It feels more intense the second season. In terms of body count, the first season it was usually an inmate who died. Now when it’s someone who dies, it’s someone you care about. You feel that loss that much more.”
Most of the conspiracy will be wrapped up this season, Miller said, with “loose ends tied up, old scores settled but I think within the triumph there will be some tragedy. Some characters will inevitably wind up behind bars.”
“What they want is to recreate what we had in the first season, a bunch of desperate bickering cons who have competing agendas forced to work together toward a common goal, he noted. “If they can believably bring them back together even for an episode here or there, they’ll have the makings of a third season.”
He noted that in the U.S., “Prison Break” is a “moderate hit, a cult hit” but in many countries overseas such as Australia, France and the U.K., “we’re ‘Desperate Housewives.’ We’re ‘Lost.’ I think the show works on a slightly different level. Here, they appreciate it as a suspense thriller. Overseas, they may associate real or alleged hot-button issues such as death penalty and government conspiracy.”

I can't imagine how they will keep this show going, but you never know. To answer your question, though, I believe it is just a season finale.
