Signing it does not mean you agree with it: It merely informs that you have been made aware of it. You can sign it with your name, and a close, such as “under duress”, “disputed”, or anything else you may wish. And I encourage you to: If it becomes a legal matter, doing that will give you SOME merit.
If you refuse to sign the evaluation, some companies have a policy where HR is to write “refused to sign” in the blank.
An employer can terminate you for various reasons. I don’t see where they’d have any legal ground to terminate you for refusing to sign. Again, most reputable companies have HR write in the disclaimer mentioned above and just let it go: the purpose of an evaluation is to let the employee know where they stand with the company, what the employer believes are your strengths and areas of improvement. They know some people do not like to hear those things, the areas of improvement, so they are ready for the possibility that the employee won’t sign.
If the employer is such a hard-ass that they’d say refusal to sign is grounds for dismissal, which I don’t think they can do legally, you just have to ask yourself if the job is really worth it.
