Domanda in primo piano

We would usually just say fifteen. Since age is calculated by years it's already known that it's 15 years old. If it's a young child though you could say 15 days old or 15 months old.

I think it would be more common to just say "fifteen", but it is still natural to add "years old". It's common in English to omit things which are not needed. "Years old" is understood, and not needed.
