Is this true? I'm thinking of upgrading my brake lines if this is not the case.

There is a steel material inside the stock rubber brake lines to prevent excessive expansion (one of the reasons why you must never compress the lines with a clip, vise grip or something similar), but have nothing to do with the real steel brake lines of a good brand (racing), which are a lot better in case of expansion and have a better result in pedal travel/pressure.
