When VCC is lowered to 15 V, the transistor remains in the linear range (active region) as long as there is enough base current to keep it in forward-active mode, and the collector-emitter voltage is sufficient to avoid saturation or cutoff. Without specific values for base current, collector current, or the transistor's characteristics, the most reasonable assumption is that the transistor remains in the linear range if it was previously operating in that region before VCC was lowered.
