I can't tell you how to respond 'y', but man asr implies:

     -noprompt       suppresses the prompt which usually occurs before
target
                     is erased.  newfs_hfs(8) will be called on target and
                     once you start writing new data, there isn't much hope
                     for recovery.  You have been warned.

So I'd prompt the user 'Are you sure?' and add the -noprompt switch to the
asr command as appropriate.
