What happens if I cancel my iCloud plan after transferring content to my new iPhone?

I upgraded my iCloud storage so I could transfer content to my new phone with iCloud backup.
What happens to my phone if I cancel the extra iCloud storage and only have 5GB of free storage?

Thank you very much. I'm trying to back up with Itunes to my PC but it has too little space. 
So now I need help to back up to an extra hard drive connected to my PC.
Is it possible to download iCloud backup from iCloud.com to an additional hard drive connected to a PC? 
Do you have any tips about what i can do?
