You need to specify the id value that ACF needs to get the field https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/adding-fields-taxonomy-term/

<?php 
  $categories= get_the_category();
  if (!empty($categories)) {
    $term_id = $categories[0]->term_id;
    $image = get_field('category-image-field', 'term_'.$term_id);
    // what you do from here depends on what the field is returning
  }
?>
