The age of consent in many states is 16 and some are 18. What this means to you is that an 18 can date a 15 year old, but not have a sexual relationship. She/he is still a minor at 15 and the 18 year old is an adult. This means that the 18 year old could be charged with rape should something happen. Check the age of consent for your state.

No, the legal age of consent in New York is 17, so a relationship between an 18-year-old and a 15-year-old would not be legal. It is important to abide by age of consent laws to avoid potential legal consequences.
