To use the backports repo you actually need to add it to your sources.list, as covered in the Debian Backports Instructions <https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/#index2h2>:
1. For jessie add this line deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main to your *sources.list* (or add a new file with the ".list" extension to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/) You can also find a list of other mirrors at https://www.debian.org/mirror/list 2.
