A 2015 MacBook Pro can be upgraded to macOS Monterey but no later. See the following from Identify your MacBook Pro model - Apple Support


MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015)

Model Identifier: MacBookPro12,1

Part Numbers: MF839xx/A, MF840xx/A, MF841xx/A, MF843xx/A

Newest compatible operating system: macOS Monterey


If it was mine, that is what I would upgrade it to. See: How to download macOS - Apple Support
