How can a 15 year old boy in America get imancipated from abusive parents?

Emancipation has little to do with the parents or the family relationships. The child needs to convince a court and a judge that the child is able, willing and capable of acting and functioning as a legal adult.
It is very unlikely until and unless the child has a job, finances, insurance and enough education to be dealt with as an adult.
If the child is being abused the only immediate answer is to contact the child protective service group for the area and request to be removed from the home.

A 15-year-old in America can seek emancipation by filing a petition with the court in their state, providing evidence of abuse, neglect, or abandonment by their parents. They may also need to demonstrate financial independence and the ability to live independently. Legal assistance is highly recommended to navigate the emancipation process successfully.

State laws vary, but if you're caught by the authorities, you will likely be returned to your abusive parents. Your 37 year old man will likely be arrested for kidnapping, and whatever else he does. It's an all-around bad plan. Go to the police and tell them the situation and ask what options you have. Explain your parents behavior. The cops will know how to protect you from your parents and you won't have to tell your parents right away if you don't want to. Let them know about your existing plan and they will let you know what's best for you. If it is a sexual relationship the 37 year old man can be charged with statutory rape because you are under 16. Also he wouldn't be charged with kidnapping because you went in your own will but he will be charged with, well i cant remember what it is called but it is withholding information from the police but is only a misterminor.
