Mostly just statistical anomaly. However, NY-15 does have a much larger non-Hispanic white population than NY-16 and has much more wealth. It may have a small rump wealthy Republican vote that simply does not exist in NY-16 (i.e., there are a lot more rich, white voters in NY-15--who still split 75-25 Democratic, but are less extremely Democratic than the rest of the two districts.) But that seems to be reading too much into small differences.
