Yes, Tri-flow is a good oil for sewing machines.
Actually, your machine doesn't need any grease. Some of the vintage Singer machines had a motor that used grease ports. By the time the 15 clones came, the motors no longer had grease ports. There are some machines that have gears, that it is recommended that grease be used on.
There is a manual for 15-clones at

Another manual for a Morse 15-clone, that has the stitch length window like yours, can be found at
