Correct.

Correct. And/or replace the handlebar with one that has rise.

Not sure what you mean by "curved," but if they are road-bike style handlebars, your current shifters and brake levers won't fit on them. Also, whether you change the stem or the handlebar or both, the handlebar clamping area should be the same diameter as the stem clamp diameter (although you can shim it if the bar is narrower than the stem clamp).
