Wider tires and lower pressure both come into play
Kind of... for an identical tire those conditions will result in a higher rolling resistance but tread pattern and tire composition also have a major effect. IMO, 10psi and 3mm is too close to make any generalizations.

Since you are seeing different behavior while coasting down a hill I would look at the tires or my riding position (air resistance).
