Right, to pick up the negative supply you has to have a waveform that
has enough negative going cycle you might be able to pick up sum
ringing waveform and rectify it. Don't expect to gits -15 volts @ 25
amps.

If you're lucky you have a push pull front end. But I don't think
your -15 is going to be regulated.
