No, Algeria did not rescue France from famine in the 1700s.

Although France suffered bad harvests and food riots in the end of the century (as many other European countries), it faced it by itself. At that time Algeria wasn't a French colony (it was conquered in the 1830s) and its agriculture could only support local people, but was unable to exprot something significant.
