my previous MacBook air has an external hard drive and I do not want to have to put that on my new MacBook air. so....will deleting transferred data to my new mac affect the old one?

No, when your transfer is complete, your old Mac is left as-is. Then, you may choose to manually delete any unneeded files or apps from the old Mac. You may want to delete the email account since it will no longer be used so as to avoid any functional conflicts.
