Background images (either applied to a page, a layer or anything for that matter) won’t ever prompt the browser to display a scroll bar as the items are not treated as part of the main page content.

True background images will never throw scroll bars on the browser,
because they exist at a layer below all other content, and do not
expose any size attributes to the browser.
Many people think that a background image in Freeway is set by adding
a picture to your page and sending it to back. This is not the same
thing as a background image at all.
To get this effect, export your image in a Web-ready format like JPEG
(with lots of compression) or GIF or PNG. Then in Freeway, click on
the pasteboard or any other blank part of your layout (so nothing is
selected) and use the Style tab of the Inspector (second tab from the
left) to select your background image. You can also set the tiling and
alignment attributes of the background in the same area. Preview in
your browser, and you should find that you can resize the window down
to the dimensions of the smallest HTML element on your page without
scroll bars appearing.
