Yes, the configuration is being saved to a flash storage of the firewall, reboot/loss of power will NOT erase the config. 

 

If you are doing some configuration changes and unexpectedly Fortigate loses power, then only unsaved changed (those where you didn't click on Save/Apply button) will be lost.
