Those divisions already lose money playing. No real risk canceling their season. There are schools at that level are in danger of shutting their doors permanently. Sports are the least of their worries.

Power five will do everything in their power to play. Too much money involved.

NCAA sports site explanation
As of Wednesday, 11 of the 23 Division II conferences had announced they will not compete during the traditional fall season.
Dave Campbell's Texas Football.com implies it's only the playoffs that are cancelled

On July 22, the Division II Administrative Committee approved waivers to allow Division II student-athletes to retain the use of a season of competition if their team completes 50% or less of the sport’s Bylaw 17 maximum contests/dates of competition for the 2020-21 academic year. Additionally, student-athletes who qualify for the season of competition waiver, or whose institutions cancel the sport season entirely, will receive an extension of their 10 semesters/15 quarters of eligibility, provided the student-athlete was otherwise eligible for competition during the 2020-21 academic year. Division II schools and conferences can still choose to play part or all of their regular season in the fall semester if they follow the requirements set forth by the Board of Governors

It really depends on how you count the money. If you view it merely as an athletic budget then yes, but the reason small schools have football is because there is a direct bottom line correlation to football on campus and increased male attendance which each extra male brings full tuition.
