Not if he meets the weight limit and does not sit properly with the seatbelt alone.

If he is taller than 4'9", he does not need to be in a booster seat. Or, if he weighs at least 80 lbs. he does not need to be in a booster seat. So, he should not be in a booster seat. Is he the youngest of the children? A mom can have her "baby" but has to relaize that the "baby" of the family has the right and the need to grow up and be an adult. I wish you and your brother the best. Take care.

If he is under 35 to 40 pounds then yes he should be in a booster seat, but if he is 35 or 40 or more then he shouldn't be in a booster seat.

Yeah it's stupid isn't it? But it's not about what feels right, it's about the law.
The law, in turn, is about safety... keeping kids alive. Adults can impose truly crazy things when it's "for the children" ... as you well know. Be glad, in this case, that their intentions are pure.
Anyway your state has specific laws about what size of person needs a booster seat, that's what your mom has to follow. Not doing so could get her in trouble. To get in trouble for something this stupid would be ... sad ... so best just put up with it.

Anyone still breast feeding should be in a booster seat.

Depends upon the situation with your little brother who is 15. Does he have a disability? What is his height and weight? And basically it is your Mother's decision and not yours, as your brother is her responsibility and his safety is I am sure her concern. Have you ask her this question?

If he's shorter than 4'9", then no.
