Yes, Company can easily be interpreted that way- like I said, Bobby was originally intended to be gay, and it shows. I'm just saying that the creators intended to change him into a commitment-phobic straight man in the original production. Nowadays, some productions make Bobby a homosexual and restore the more explicitly gay lines that were taken out. They couldn't have done this without Sondheim and Co.'s approval. So Bobby is both gay and not gay. Depends on the production. :)
