Asking Siri to restart your phone is a soft reset. This is just a normal restart of a device, like hitting the restart button on Windows.
A hard reset forces a device to restart against it's will, such as when it's hung or frozen. This is equivalent to holding down the power button on a PC until it restarts. A factory reset wipes your phone clean and restores it to the way it was when it was shipped, although I think it does end up with the latest IOS.
