"Rolloff" in theory means a signal starts cut off frequencies lower or higher than a given rolloff frequency.  In a 2-way crossover for example, the signals are split into two signals, one of which going to a subwoofer, which starts to roll off at say, 2KHz, meaning all the frequencies beyond 2KHz start to lose gain (or consider it a cutoff point for frequencies beyond 2KHz).  Then, the other signal goes to a midrange/tweeter.  Usually, the high frequency rolloff of the woofer signal is the low frequency rolloff of a midrange/tweeter signal.  So that means, all frequencies lower than 2 KHz roll off.  Another term used for this is low shelving or high shelving.  Some others use the terms, "high pass" or "low pass".
