At the termination will get an inverting reflection that is proportional to the difference between the characteristic impedance and the actual termination. That will be inverted again by the 1/4 wave section to give a higher impedance at the input of the line.

The limit is of course if the line is shorted in which case you will get an infinite impedance at the input to the line - this is the usual 1/4 wave stub.
