Yes. Your dominant hand should always be the one forming the fist on top, while your non-dominant hand acts as the flat base underneath.
No, your thumb should be resting against the side of your index finger and pointing upward (an 'A' handshape). Tucking it inside your fingers creates an 'S' handshape, which is incorrect for this sign.
