Yes and no.
Yes, when a student CONSISTANTLY makes very high grades, it speaks volumes about their intelligence.
However, when a student makes low grades, it doesn't neccessarily mean that the student isn't bright. It can be several things besides low intelligence that can cause bad grades: boredom, emotional problems, stress, avoiding stigma of being smart, learning problems, concentration problems, low motivation, low self esteem, conflicts w/ teachers or students, etc. This list goes on and on.
