yes, the intent is that in 'civilian attire' Gohan is meant to be blending in. if he was drawn with his natural bulk then it would be really obvious through his clothing because he'd be twice the size of his classmates. the entire joke is that they think he's some dork when in reality he's the strongest person on the planet at the time.

>he's just cut
his shoulders alone are a solid 4 inches wider. and no, Goten+Trunks are not even remotely as big. remember, this is what Goten looked like in End of Z when he's about 17. are you blind or something? A dude Buu Gohan's size would have a top 1% physique in real life, he's massive.
