My bet is the fuel pump is dead. 15 years sitting static in the tank with moisture from condensation and a bit of old fuel will corrode it enough to seize it. I've seen it happen from cars sitting three to five years.

The alarm and locking/unlocking from the key fob is not directly related to the immobilizer. There is a transponder in the key fob that is interrogated by the car, but a dead battery in the remote will have no effect on that.
