As long as those temps are the temps of the top of the substrate on the warm side, then yes. What size tank do you have? I would think that a 150 watt bulb would be overkill since you have a UTH too, you could probably drop back to something MUCH smaller 
I use 50 watt infrared bulbs, and have used 40 watt night glo in the past and they were more than large enough for my 20 gal long tanks and my 29 gal tank.
