Yes, it should immediately make the new phone the one that rings.

Additionally, will all of my contact numbers and existing texts move over to the new phone along with the sim or will these need to be moved separately?
It depends on how your existing phone is set up. As long as your contacts as on your Google account then they will be available once you sign on your new account.

But I'd suggest looking at this for Samsung to Samsung updates:
