Brenda:"I believe the "all the Weasleys" in the remark pertains to 
their red hair, and "more children than they can afford" to the 
immediate Weasley family, not families."

We do know of relatives, though, particularly one distant cousin 
who's an accountant that no one speaks of, so it seems likely there's 
others. We never hear about them more because they're not part of 
the story. These books are stories, not encyclopedias, and the books 
aren't windows into the wizard world; they're tiny peepholes, and we 
don't see a lot more than we do see.
