Go into the account settings for your Exchange account on your iPhone
and there are 3 settings on it, where you pick whether you use Exchange
for Mail, Contacts and/or Calendar. You get shown this immediately after
you put in your username and password in the Add Account wizard on your
iPhone. I believe that, if you have Contacts switched on, then at this
point it even warns you that it is about to overwrite your Contacts,
doesn't it?
You only have 18 contacts or thereabouts on your Exchange account (and
those appear to be deleted), so they must be stored elsewhere. Are they
in the Apple address book on your Mac? If so, then you can merge those
into your Exchange contacts with Outlook, using Preferences / Sync
Services. That's what you ideally want to do, as it then keeps them all
in sync with each other for you.
If you have no other copy (on MobileMe or a Mac or anything) of your
Contacts, and your contacts weren't stored on the Exchange server, then
restore your iPhone to its previous backup, then when you create the
Exchange account this time set it to *not* use Exchange for your
contacts when you first create the account, as described in the 1st
paragraph above.
