Dropbox do reserve the rights to delete files if you go over quota, yes.
They will warn you before they do it, however, it is not recoverable once it happens.

No, typically if you stop paying for a subscription to a cloud storage service, your files are not immediately deleted. Instead, your account may be downgraded to a free plan, and you'll likely lose access to some premium features. Your files will usually remain accessible, but you may be unable to upload new files or sync across devices until you free up space or resume your subscription.
To be certain, you should check the specific terms and conditions of your cloud storage provider, as policies can vary.
