Welcome to iMore!

All depends if you have a backup in iTunes or iCloud. If you do, then you can use it during the activation process. If not, then you will lose everything. Or did it shut down due to an update and restart. If I remember correctly the last update ended up coming back to the Hello screen. If that's the case, then proceed and all your info will be safe.
