Is increasing clock speeds always better for performance?

I wouldn't attempt this on a laptop. Most likely you'd only reduce a few frames per second, but it's still worth trying if
it's a desktop with an 1050 Ti that has extra power connectors. In a case that doesn't worry about heat, the dangers for a laptop are much higher. Problems with heat and power supply are what usually cause laptops to fail without physical damage, and pushing a laptop GPU over its limits is a common way to stress those components.

Could you clarify what you mean by "improve performance"? I'm trying to make sure I address it correctly.

Not exactly like this. Focus on keeping background work minimal, aiming for peak performance instead of just saving power, etc. Laptop performance usually reflects what it actually delivers.
Observe the compromises laptops with stronger GPUs must balance—my machine uses a non-Max-Q GTX 1070 that’s huge, packed with vents, and if I had to carry it often, I’d need surgery in a month.
