Yes there is a strong correlation between someone's height and weight. Someone who is 6'5 will need substantially more calories than someone who is 5'. If they consume approximately the same amount of calories on a daily basis, the taller individual will of course weigh less than the shorter person.
However in saying that, if they both eat their body's equilibrium amount of calories (ie. burning as many calories as they take it) they should be height and weight proportionate. Another aspect are genes. Some individuals have a slower metabolism, a different body structure and so forth. So in saying that, the simple answer for your question is "yes", however it's a lot more complicated than that.
Studies strongly suggest that individuals who are taller generally assume a leaner body frame. On the flip-side, if they're chowing down on Mc5 quarter pounders, they'll probably be a lot fatter than small Betty Joe down the street.
