I've done a full backup of my C-drive to an external hard drive using Acronis 7and now, I'm ready to restore the data back to C:\; however, I'm not sure of when/how C:\ gets formatted. Will Acronis do the format during the restore process, or do I have to format using FDISK or some other method. Please advise.

Just restore the image.
Acronis will overwrite anything on the disk.

doesn't it ask whether it should overwrite the files?

Yes, it did once I got further into the actual process.
