No.
For a couple of reasons:
it was only partially in color. Gone with the Wind came out in the same year.
There was a totally colored film 3 or 4 years before either (Becky??? something).
Partially colored films have an much older history:
there was 2 color technicolor
there were hand painted films
there were tinted films
going back to the turn of the century (the last one)
MoreSeveral big-budget films had been made in color during the mid-1930s. Probably the most famous was "The Adventures of Robin Hood", starring Errol Flynn and released in 1935. As noted above, there were also films made using a 2-color process as early as the 1920s but (a) the process didn't produce very realistic colors, and (b) none of the films were particularly memorable.Yes, the Oz scenes were always in color. It wasn't the first film with color, but the technology was still very new.

The very first film adaptation of The Wizard of Oz was actually a silent, black-and-white film released in 1925. However, the 1939 MGM movie is more famous. If you look closely at the credits, you can see that the movie was filmed using Technicolor film technology. Because this was more expensive than black and white film, color film was not used widely until a few decades later. It simply was not economical to produce every film in color.
The book came first, then the film.
