If the minor child's state of residency allows for emancipation, and the minor has sought and won emancipation, then yes, they would be considered an adult in the eyes of the law and could apply for section 8.

First of all, the minor needs to live in a state that has emancipation statutes that would allow them to apply.

To the best of my knowledge, New York does not allow a minor to petition the court for emancipation. Even if they did, it's unlikely that 15-year-old would be granted emancipation, for the simple reason that the average 15-year-old is not going to be able to support themselves (one of the requirements for emancipation)--unless they happen to be a child actor/professional athlete making big bucks.
