I suppose, but you could just say that about anything. Does Goku and co's ability to fly hint that DB Earth has weaker gravity? Sure it's supposed to be ki that allows them to, but either way it'd probably require a lot less effort on their part if gravity were weaker.
I don't see what problems claiming DB Earth has weaker gravity would solve that can't be solved easier and more realistically by noting that DB was never intended to be very scientifically accurate.

I'm pretty sure the laws in Dragon Ball are much different then ours. I mean Tao was already around Mach 14 in speed and characters past Tao are much faster. Fast enough that they could burn the Earth's surface, but it seems like Planet was just fine when Gotenks travel across it.
