Syncing iphone to itunes after having it for a year

I've had my current iPhone for over a year. I've never had a need to sync it to iTunes until today, and it asks for me to either set up the phone as a new iPhone or to restore it from a backup from a long time ago (which I really don't want to do). If I choose to set it up as a new iPhone, is it going to erase everything on my phone?

iPhone 8

Question marked as Apple recommended

Just want to correct myself. Definitely don't restore, but others are stating that "Set up as new" is really only setting up iTunes to allow a new device to connect to iTunes..
