No, the ability for IP's to change has nothing to do with leaving the modem on, its more about how saturated the local uBR pool is.
The more active accounts in a locale, the more often the IP address will change as calls are made for connectivity.
So your experience is indicitive of an under utilised uBR, which probably means a very good contention ratio for you.
VM have no plans to offer residential customers static IP addresses, that service will be reserved for business users.
Hope that helps.
