Please Explain, why longer time controlled games lead to improvement if played correctly of course. And why as low rated player I should avoid playing any game shorter than 15 minutes. Thank you very much.

time to think should lead to better moves/less tactical oversights

I would recommend at least 30 minutes total - so like 15+15 is ok, because the increment and the initial time is 30 minutes. 

Also, if you wanted to challenge me to a training game, make it unrated! I only do unrated training games lol.
