no and yes.
no, in that engaging the enemy will not affect your mission-success-objective. there are no negative points assigned.
yes, in that your activity will alert the enemy to your presence which may bring aircraft and ship activity into that area to hunt you.
in my experience, i sink everything that presents itself, whenever it presents itself, with the caveat that i have enough ammo remaining to be successful in my prime directive, i mean objective.

Does it reflect in 'renown' etc.
yes. positively.
unless you sink a hospital ship or a foreign-neutral ship......
