Ahead of the conference, Foster warned May she risks losing the support of the DUP support if she presses ahead with her current Brexit deal.
In a media interview in Belfast, Foster called on the Prime Minister to ditch the UK-EU Withdrawal Agreement or face the end of the Westminster pact between the DUP and the Conservatives.
Foster told Radio Ulster's Inside Politics if the deal is not going to deliver on Brexit, the DUP would have to look at the confidence and supply agreement between the two parties.
In a speech at the DUP conference Saturday, former Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson told delegates Britain is on the verge of making a historic mistake if it does not scrap the backstop. It could risk tearing apart the fabric of the United Kingdom, Johnson warned.
He said Northern Ireland faced being reduced to the status of a semi-colony of the EU if the Brexit deal is ratified by the British parliament.
He called DUP MPs at Westminster to work with him and the many Conservative backbenchers who have pledged to vote down May's deal next month.
In what the Daily Telegraph described as a rousing speech to the DUP conference, Johnson said the draft Brexit withdrawal agreement conjured up images of famous ocean liner Titanic heading off to sea, adding: "now is the time to point out the iceberg ahead."
The ill-fated Titanic was built in Belfast and sank on its maiden voyage across the Atlantic in 1912.
