Just doing the math I can assume the child was taken away from the person he/she wants to live with since the child is 15, and the person had custody for 14 years prior. That being said - No - you can't make your own decision. You are a minor according to law, and all decisions are made for you by your legal guardian. A judge will take into account the way you feel about the situation - but you have no legal weight to demand anything at your age.
Only Texas has that law, but with significant restrictions. In all other states, it's a case by case basis, with the Judge interpreting the maturity of the child, and their intent, but this still does not override other evidence in the child's best interest. It's just a piece of the evidence.

No, although most courts favor custody to the mother.
No, unless the baby's biological father relenquishes his parental rights, he would get custody of the child if the mother dies, not her husband. The biological father must sign his rights away to the mother's husband.
