Referring to a legislative body, it means that there is one "house".

The state legislature of Nebraska is unicameral. All other states have two houses. For example, California has a Senate and an Assembly.

Is our legislature bicameral?

If you mean Congress, yes. "camera" is actually the latin word for a chamber or private place. "Bicameral" derives from this word and because the prefix "bi-" means two, the word means "two houses" (Senate and House of Representatives) with overlapping and separate powers. Most state legislatures are also bicameral. If there is only one "house" it's called "unicameral" as the prefix "uni-" from latin means one. Nebraska is an example of a state with a unicameral legislature.
