É mais ou menos isso. Tem o mesmo significado de "What are you insinuating?"
Ex.: Joe- Hey I noticed your new hairstyle
Becky- Yeah I added the white highlights to my dark hair, thought it would look cool
Joe- Ah, you know skunks kinda have that same look, black hair with white stripes
Becky- What are you getting at? (What are you insinuating?)

Yes, precisely what Marcelo has affirmed. Often meaning some degree of criticism.
It might serve as a way of clarifying something as well, in this case its meaning is close to "implying". That is, it may be a request for further information or elucidation.

Yes, both can mean:
What are you implying?; What do you mean? What are you trying to say?
