New iPhone and New Sim Card Transfer Question

So recently I bought an unlocked iPhone XS and was transferring my data from my iPhone 6 Plus. After using quickstart I was going to use a new sim card in my XS because my iPhone 6 plus had issues and would not take a sim card. If I use a new sim card in my phone, will I lose my old phone number?

iPhone XS, iOS 14

The phone number is in the SIM.

If you want to replace the SIM, best you ask your carrier to send you a new SIM using your old phone number.
