Other way around. These are the defaults, and anything you put in local.cf will override the corresponding setting in this file.

SA processes all the files in the general SA directory -- /usr/(local)/share/spamassassin, or
/var/lib/spamassassin/path/to/updated/rules -- then processes the files in your local folder (usually /etc/mail/spamassassin)

As long as you leave 10_default_prefs.cf in its normal location, you shouldn't have any problems.
