With fax and computer sharing one telephone line, what can I do to have and incoming fax call knock me off-line?

You must use a "special" modem that alert you when there's incoming call.
I hear that GVC 56K Ext. or Zoom 56K has this feature.
Check with your telephone company if they have Call Waiting option. That way, your line is never engaged, so it will ring, which 'confuses' your modem and forces it to drop the line.
