with a bank angle of 15 degrees
It's an airspeed with up to 5 degrees of bank towards the operating engine.

With more horizontal compontent of lift (i.e more weight) you will need less bank to get the same horizontal compontent of lift compared to a lower weight, which in turn eventually leads to a lower Vmca.
