Yes, that is what I saw the Gryffindors in the movie wearing.

I don't recall seeing any Hufflepuff scarves, but their House colors 
are yellow (like their Quidditch robes) (actually the yellow is 
Heraldic gold) and black: the badger on the Hufflepuff quarter of the 
Hogwarts arms is black. Were any kids in the movie wearing black 
and yellow striped scarves like honeybees?

I wish Ravenclaw's colors were blue and silver (my favorite colors 
and I am a Ravenclaw) but GoF said Ravenclaw's colors are blue and 
bronze. Bronze is not a heraldic color, so the eagle on the arms MUST 
be Heraldic gold (giving me the consolation prize that Ravenclaw's 
colors are the same as UCLA's). Anyway, my conclusion is that the 
pale stripes must be light blue because there is no reason for them 
to be gray/silver.

Yes, their scarves in the movie Looked like black (possibly navy 
blue) and gray, but we KNOW it must be green.
