Will changes to a board columns be reflected in previous sprint reports?

If I make changes to a boards columns will those changes be reflected in sprint reports for previously completed sprints? For example, I have a board where "Ready for review" is in the column to the left of the Done column. Stories may remain in that status for several sprints before they are reviewed and marked "Ready for prod release". This causes carry over from sprint to sprint and makes my burn down charts useless. I'd like to move the status "Ready for review" to the Done column to designate that these stories are "sprint done". I can then track them outside of the sprint cadence by way of a dashboard or something to be sure they don't fall through the cracks. My question is, will this change be reflected in burn down charts of previously completed sprints or are those charts a done deal based upon the status transitions that occurred at the time of the sprint?

It appears that the answer is yes. I've moved the status in question to the right most column and sprint reports for previously closed sprints appear to reflect the change correctly.
