Plural noun = are
Singular noun = is
Even if you leave off the “minutes”, “Fifteen” is a plural noun so you use “are”: “15 are left.”

Answer is “15 minutes are left” . Here “are” is used becoz the word “minutes” is plural.

i agree with kja63. ‘There are 15 minutes leftt’ is the more suitable one, but if you have to choose between ‘is’ or ‘are’, the answer would be ‘are’.

Only one “is”
