Essentially correct; the important difference is that a bock (of any kind) should be strongly malty, and dark-roasted malts are acceptable and expected. A tripel should not have any dark-roasted malts, and malt flavour should be light (which is why sugar is often used to boost strength without boosting maltiness).
