There are two kinds of ACKs; end-to-end ACKs (in response to
dialog-establishing 2xx responses of an invite transaction), and
hop-by-hop ACKs (in response to negative transaction replies which
require a reliable acknowledgment). The latter are independently emitted
on a hop-by-hop basis, so every proxy in the chain would emit its own
downstream while absorbing the upstream ones.

But in answer to your question, they are still requests, not replies.
Only replies are replies:
