Not really. If you are significantly under the speed limit or flow of traffic (officers discretion), you can be pulled over for hazardous driving. Also, failing to yield to faster traffic is also illegal.

The minimum speed signs you see in some states is just a reminder of the rule. The absence of a min or max sign doesn't mean that you are free to drive any speed you want.
