ERC20 is a token send through the Ethereum blockchain.
Huobi creates an Ethereum token hBTC for each BTC you add to their account. This means that 1 BTC = 1 hBTC if everything goes as planned. You can send the hBTC to any person on Ethereum. If he wants to get BTC, he will have to go to huobi and convert back.
The fees are lower because Ethereum is cheaper to use than Bitcoin.
ERC20 chain? You mean ethereum blockchain? ERC20 is a standard.
To answer your question, nopes. You can use it for ETH transactions (and it's derivatives). However, there are tokens such as WBTC which would wrap the BTC for you and give you same amount of token (vice-e-versa).
