In this spec sheet: http://www.cde.com/mpdf/wwaudio.pdf , I dont get
the 15W of Continuous Audio. Does it mean the power to have continuous
audio is 15W?

Thanks.

It means you can run 15W of audio into it continuously (when part of a
circuit, obviously). That 15W should be RMS, I expect

Some of the audio will get absorbed by the device, the rest will go to
the speaker.

It means the rheostat can dissapate 15 watts. You can get into an
argument about whether this is RMS volts across a pure resistance, or
average power, or 'music power' or 'peak power' or several other
confusing ways of making an amplifier have more power.

Thanks...

Another unrelated question to this one, so in the same spec, Insulation
Resistance means the resistance of the insulation?

It does indeed.
