That is correct. There could be a few issues with this so I am attaching the testing below but here are a few guides that will help with this:

Basically, what this is saying is that the upstream o2 sensor is sensing a certain amount of oxygen in the exhaust. When the oxygen content is low the assumption is made that there is more fuel. So, the downstream sensor needs to show that this amount of oxygen has come up to an acceptable level which means the converter is reducing the amount of fuel in the exhaust and doing its job.
So, this means the upstream or down can be reading inaccurate causing the PCM to think it is not reducing the fuel enough.
Please run through the testing below and that will get us to the solution.
Let us know what you find. Thanks
