I haven't tested this OSGeoLive version, but it looks like it is based on Ubuntu Xenial :
https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/blob/master/sources.list.d/osgeolive.list

And if you look at
https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntugis/+archive/ubuntu/ubuntugis-unstable/+index?field.series_filter=xenial

the proj package you quote isn't listed. In fact it is tagged as being for the old'ish
Precise:
https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntugis/+archive/ubuntu/ubuntugis-unstable/+index?field.series_filter=precise

So I think that OSGeoLive just inherits the official proj in Xenial :
https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/proj-bin
ie proj 4.9.2

Of course in-situ observation would be better than this deduction game ;-)
