The only time the offense would decline that penalty, would be if the resulting play advanced them more than 15 yards down the field. Either way, they would have a first down.

What is the longest penalty given in NFL game ie 15 yards?

The longest penalty in an NFL game is undefined. A defensive pass interference penalty is assessed from the line of scrimmage to the spot of the foul. If the spot of the foul is 30 yards beyond the line of scrimmage, the penalty is 30 yards. If the spot of the foul is 18 yards past the line of scrimmage, the penalty is 18 yards. If the spot of the foul is 9 yards past the line of scrimmage, the penalty is 9 yards. A defensive pass interference penalty is the only penalty that can be longer than 15 yards.

Why did the NY Giants retain possession after the New Orleans interception by Darren Sharper I know there was a personal foul but it was after the ball left the quarterbacks hands?

The penalty was for roughing the passer and occurred while the ball was in the air. Therefore, the Giants still had possession of the ball since Sharper had not yet intercepted the pass. Because the Giants had possession when the penalty was committed, they kept possession regardless of the outcome of the play, which was a 70 yard return for a TD. Had there been a penalty after the interception, the Saints would have gotten possession of the ball.
