Drone Registration Visibilty

Do Drones have to be registered thru FAA? I live in the Mojave Desert, N. Joshua Tree, California. The Flight path is directly over us for - PSP, LAX, and other smaller Airports. There is a noticeable amount of drone activity ranging from 800ft to 4000ft entering airspace/flight paths. Is this legal? I just witnessed a drone at the same height of a commercial airline in route SW to PSP. The drone was on the starbird side from N. traveling towards the A/C starbird side at a fast pace. Is anyone familiar with airspace rules, laws? This isn’t the 1st time I’ve witnessed this odd drone behavior.

Here’s the page from the FAA that tells how to behave with drones:
