Answer 1

You can just add another element to the form like so:

$form['terms'] = array(
  '#type' => 'checkbox',
  '#title' => t('Terms & Conditions'),
  '#prefix' => "<p>Your terms go here</p>",
  '#required' => TRUE,
);

That will just stick the text before the checkbox, and then use CSS to position it however you want.

You might also want to put a validate hook in there and remove the #required attribute so you can write your own text in the form_set_error.

Answer 2

Use the Legal module

Displays your Terms & Conditions to users who want to register, and requires that they accept the T&C before their registration is accepted.
