Is it legal for a 15 year old and a 17 year old to be in a relationship?
I'm asking because I just realized that in two years, I will be 17 and my boyfriend will be 15. I don't feel like going to jail for this.

Yes. You're both minors.
Technically being in a relationship in general is fine, it only gets muddy when there's sex involved. But it's only a two-year age gap, so even if you turn 18 (assuming that 16 is at or above the age of consent where you guys live and the law says it's alright) you'll be fine.
