Yes, especially if the arrangement is with a debt collection agency and not the original company. That you're paying the bill is good, but the history of having trouble paying it and the bill going into collections will be reported on your credit history.

How can your boyfriend improve his credit rating if he has a few unresolved collection debts and small unpaid debts from years back?

He needs to make arrangements to pay them off. If he can't pay them off in a lump payment, he needs to inquire as to whether the company will make payment arrangements with him. If so, advise him to get it in writing and then follow the agreement exactly as it was made. This "payment arrangement" of a collection actually will help him on the road to rebuilding his credit rating.
