I have a cycled tank ready to go for my axolotl which I am suppose to get in 2 days, and it holds a steady temp of 15°C.
From reading, it seems clear that 15° is a valid temp for an Axolotl. But being a new owner I want a second opinion pls!

The ideal temperature randlge for an axolotl is usually described as about 62-65 degrees Fahrenheit, which is about 16.67-18.3 Celsius. An axolotl's water should NOT go above 70 F/21.1 C or below 50 F/10 C.

15°C is well within the good temps for axolotls.
Axolotls can support temperatures as low as 4°C for a short while but they do not feel well at more than 22°C.
Seasonal temperature variations are part of their natural rythm.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
