Both things are related since a Makefile is a script
interpreted by the make program in which you specify
different targets such as "make", "make install",...
and what is to be done for each of them.

As you mentioned "make install", "make deinstall",
"make clean", I suppose you need information about how
to install ports. If this is the case have a look at
the handbook.
