If you mean whether or not that is a comparison between "better-much better", in the way "good-better" has; no.
"Better" and "much better" is the same thing. much better is more emphasized, that's all.

Good . . . Better [comparative] . . . Best [superlative]
"Bill's plan was good, but Mary's plan was better. With a minor change to Mary's plan, it became much better. But Susie's plan was the best and that's the one we used."
