No it did not. Certainly not in the 15th Century. (Whether it did millions of years ago before the continents took their current formation and when the climate was different is hard to say.)
One of the complaints by the early settlers of Iceland was the lack of timber. They had to import it or use what little driftwood they found.
We know that about 1300 A.D. the climate began to cool, making things even worse than before.

No absolutely not, there are not many trees growing in Iceland and that´s goes for the 15th century too. Teak wood grows in hotter regions, as tropical forests.

Teak comes from monsoon forests in India, Indo-China, Myanmar and the Philippines.

No. Teak is a tropical hard wood, grown only in the rain forest regions.
