From that same screen you can stop individual services until the load goes down. I have done that before. If the load is really high it could take a very long time for the server to reboot if you choose that option. I have also found that some hardware does not support reboot.
I have also found in the past that rebooting the server is a temporary fix. Often the problem comes back, sometimes almost immediately. My suggestion to new admins is to learn how to fix the root problems. Rebooting CAN bring temporary relief but usually it is not the solution. At least that has been my experience.
