Create a roll-up summary field on the Quote and write a validation rule to check the count of that field eg 

Number_of_Line_Items__c <
PRIORVALUE(Number_of_Line_Items__c) )

Here is the help article for Opportunity But can be used for quote as well

Hi Sam,

Salesforce provide standard field "IsDeleted", its value will be True if the record is deleted and currently residing in Recycle bin and False, if record is not deleted.
Hope that helps!

Hi Sudhir,

Greetings to you!

No, there is no out of the box function like ISDELETE() or ToDelete() for formula. You can write a trigger to do this.

There's an idea which is active on the success community with a similar discussion for which you can upvote so that it gets available in the future.

Hi Gauravendra, To implement this you need to write code. The solution I have suggested can be done using config No code.

If you don't want to write a trigger use the validation rule as suggested by Lokesh. The formula should be like this: 
AND(
   OR(
      ISPICKVAL(Status, "Approved"),
      ISPICKVAL(Status, "In Review")
   ),
   Number_of_Line_Items__c < PRIORVALUE(Number_of_Line_Items__c) 
)

Validation Rule is on Quote object.
Number_of_Line_Items__c is a custom roll-up summary field on Quote.
